A few months back, several bloggers commented about the difference between "asking" cultures and "guessing" cultures. As the name suggests, "asking" cultures are ones in which you can directly ask for what you want, and "guessing" cultures are ones in which you don't ask unless you're sure the answer will be yes. Jonathan Chait believes that "askers" are right, and "guessers" are wrong.
In the sexual realm, I think an "asking" culture beats a "guessing" culture hands down:
I've always thought that the maintenance of a "guessing" culture was motivated in part by snobbery and a desire to increase the level of social obscurity so as to create outsiders who could not be "in the know."
And another reason I don't like the "guessing" culture is that what is "obvious" to one person may be quite opaque to another. There was a study done, a few years ago, that demonstrated that, oftentimes, someone may think that what they are communicating is crystal clear, and easily "guessed," when in fact it is not. (Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find this study online. Google is often useless when I'm searching for something specific.)
As I remember it, some of the participants in this study were asked to tap their fingers to the rhythm of a common song, ("Jingle Bells" for example). Other participants were asked to guess what song was being "tapped." As it happens, the persons doing the tapping greatly overestimated how often the other person would be able to guess what song they were tapping with their fingers. So, what we think is "obvious" often isn't.
In the sexual realm, what is and isn't "obvious" often differs a great deal between men and women because of their different life experiences. For example, many women, by the time they reach their mid-twenties, have been approached by men thousands of times. For men, however, this is often not the case. I'm on the far side of thirty-five, and I've been approached two times. (If we define "approaching someone" as initiating a conversation and indicating a romantic interest.) And I definitely haven't approached women thousands of times. So I think it's fair to say that the average woman, even by being relatively passive, is probably going to gain much more experience than the average man in picking up the social cues that indicate sexual interest. And that's why an "asking" culture, better for both men and women, is especially better for most men.

Marilyn brings the spring to Reagan Park in Palestine, Texas with a rare outdoor screening of Monkey Business this Saturday, March 11, as part of the Classic Movies in the Park series, reports the Palestine Herald-Press.
Marilyn brings the spring to Reagan Park in Palestine, Texas with a rare outdoor screening of Monkey Business this Saturday, March 11, as part of the Classic Movies in the Park series, reports the Palestine Herald-Press.
A photographic archive from the estate of legendary Hollywood cameraman Milton Krasner will be auctioned at Laidlaw's in Carlisle, England on March 25, the Daily Mail reports. As the full catalogue has not yet been published, it is unclear how many photos feature Marilyn, other than the image shown above (with Krasner standing behind director Howard Hawks.) However, the star and her four-time lensman were photographed together during their earliest collaboration on All About Eve; and Sam Shaw captured them on the set of their penultimate project, The Seven Year Itch. (Krasner also filmed 'The Ransom of the Red Chief' for the portmanteau film, O. Henry's Full House, though he was uncredited. Marilyn appeared in another segment.)
"An official photograph taken on the set of the 1950s classic, Monkey Business, featuring Marilyn Monroe and Cary Grant in roller skates is a noteworthy picture that offers a behind-the-scenes glimpse into Krasner's work.
A program from the 23rd Annual Academy Awards – when Krasner's movie All About Eve received a record-breaking 14 nominations – and a signed Christmas card from American costume designer Charles LeMaire are just one of the rare pictures from Krasner's archive that will be on sale.
The two had worked together on All About Eve and would go on to work together on The Seven Year Itch.
Krasner's work with Marilyn Monroe and their shared filmography includes All About Eve, Monkey Business, O. Henry's Full House, The Seven Year Itch and Bus Stop."
Hope College in Holland, Michigan will pay tribute to Marilyn with a season of four films at the Knickerbocker Theatre on Monday nights this August, including Monkey Business (August 1); There's No Business Like Show Business (August 8); The Seven Year Itch (August 15) and Some Like it Hot (August 22.)
The highly popular Australian exhibit, Twentieth Century Fox Presents Marilyn Monroe, will close on July 10, reports the Bendigo Advertiser.
"In the final weeks of the exhibition, the gallery is presenting a number of programs to complement the exhibition:
- Curator's introduction, noon, Thursday, June 23. Join exhibition curator Tansy Curtin for a special overview, as she discusses the exhibition and the life of Marilyn Monroe. Free with valid exhibition ticket.
- Film marathon, Monkey Business, 2.30pm, Saturday, July 9. Enjoy access to some of the highlights from Marilyn's career with successive film screenings at the La Trobe University VAC. Limited numbers. First in best dressed."
The release of The Misfits on February 1, 1961 – exactly fifty-five years ago this week – was overshadowed by the recent death of Clark Gable, and Marilyn's divorce from Arthur Miller. Nonetheless, one of the most favourable reviews came from Kate Cameron, critic for the New York Daily News, and has been republished in full.
"Arthur Miller sang a sweet swan-song to his ex-wife, Marilyn Monroe, in The Misfits. His written tribute describes her as a beautiful, beloved and 'loving, sweetly sentimental woman with an emanating lost lady' aura. The story is prophetic when the song, gay through most of the action, goes into a minor key, as if the author were aware that his love was slipping away from him …
Gable has never done anything better on the screen, nor has Miss Monroe. Gable's acting is vibrant and lusty, hers true to the character as written by Miller.
It is, I believe, of finer quality and of greater dramatic interest than any American product released last year … The screen vibrates with emotion during the latter part of the film, as Marilyn and Gable engage in one of those battles of the sexes that seem eternal in their constant eruption …"
While some highbrow critics were slow to warm to Marilyn's talent, Kate Cameron was one of her early champions. Here is a selection of her comments:
"Marilyn Monroe, cast as Miss Stanwyck's gay, excitement-craving future sister-in-law, is a real acting threat to the season's screen blondes." – Clash by Night (1952)
"Marilyn Monroe and David Wayne play their roles well, the former representing a successful contestant in the 'Mrs America' beauty pageant, the latter as her disgruntled husband." – We're Not Married (1952)
"Ginger and Cary are assisted in this amusing nonsense by Marilyn Monroe, who can look and act dumber than any of the screen's current blondes." – Monkey Business (1952)
"Betty Grable, Lauren Bacall and Marilyn Monroe give off the quips and cracks, generously supplied by Nunnally Johnson, with a naturalness that adds to their strikingly humorous effect, making the film the funniest comedy of the year." – How to Marry a Millionaire (1953)
"Marilyn stars in three specialty numbers amusingly, as she does a comic burlesque as the sexy singer of naughty songs." – There's No Business Like Show Business (1954)
George Karl Wentzlaff, who appeared in two of Marilyn's films under the stage name of George Winslow – and was nicknamed 'Foghorn' for his distinctive baritone – has died aged 69, reports the Santa Rosa Press Democrat.
Born in Los Angeles in 1946, George first found fame at the tender age of six on Art Linkletter's radio show, People Are Funny. After hearing George on the radio, actor Cary Grant asked him to appear in his 1952 film, Room For One More.
This was followed by a role as a cub scout in Howard Hawks' Monkey Business, which also starred Cary Grant alongside Marilyn, although she did not appear in any scenes with George. He then played the title role in another Fox comedy, My Pal Gus, opposite Richard Widmark. The press reported that a scene was being filmed outside the Beverly Carleton Hotel, where Marilyn was then living, and she was inadvertently filmed while watching the action from her balcony. However, she cannot be seen in the movie.
George finally got his chance to work with Marilyn in another Hawks movie, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953.) He plays Henry Spofford III, a billionaire that gold-digger Lorelei Lee (MM) hopes to make a play for while on a cruise. When he sits beside her at the captain's table, however, she is shocked to discover his true age.
In another scene, Lorelei sneaks into the cabin of a private detective who is monitoring her antics, but becomes stuck while attempting to climb out through a porthole. Spofford, who is on deck, agrees to help her for two reasons: 'The first reason is I'm too young to be sent to jail. The second reason is you got a lot of animal magnetism.'
They are interrupted when an elderly English aristocrat, Sir Francis 'Piggy' Beekman (Charles Coburn), also appears on deck. Hidden under a blanket, Spofford acts as Lorelei's ventriloquist, explaining that she has a severe case of laryngitis. 'A child with the voice of a man, Winslow contrasted with Marilyn, a woman with the voice of a child,' author Gary Vitacco-Robles observed in his 2014 biography, Icon: The Life Times and Films of Marilyn Monroe, Volume 1 1926-1956.
Photos taken on the set show a warm affection between George and his leading lady. 'The thing I remember most is working with this beautiful lady from early in the morning until late at night,' George said later. 'Then as my folks were getting me dressed to go home she came out of her dressing room without any makeup. If I hadn't recognized her voice I'd never have believed she was the same person.'
George went on to star opposite Clifton Webb in Mister Scoutmaster (1953), and worked with Charles Coburn again in The Rocket Man (1954.) He appeared alongside Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis in their 1956 comedy, Artists and Models. He also acted in TV shows including Ozzie and Harriet and Blondie.
After his voice broke, the offers dried up, and twelve year-old George played his last film role in Wild Heritage (1958.) Putting stardom behind him, George served in the US Navy during the Vietnam War, and later joined the Postal Service.
After retiring a few years ago, George volunteered at a military antiques store and museum in Petaluma, California, where he enjoyed talking with other veterans. Known as Wally to friends in the west county, George was an easygoing man, quirky and caring and 'about the nicest guy you could ever know,' Braafladt said. 'I think he was genuinely happy with where his life was.'
He survived heart surgery in 2013, but on June 13, he died of a heart attack. Kevin Braafladt, George's friend and owner of the museum, called at his Camp Meeker home after he failed to show up for work the next day, and found his body.
George was sharing his home with about 25 cats. Braafladt is currently caring for them all, and hopes to find them new homes through an animal shelter. 'His love was the cats,' Braafladt said. 'He'd always talk about them.'
George had said he had no heirs and the coroner's office was unable to locate any relatives, Braafladt said. A memorial service will be held in Petaluma at a date to be determined. Wentzlaff will be buried with military honors at the Sacramento Valley National Cemetery near Dixon in July.
Although best-known for his role as Lee Majors' boss in The Six Million Dollar Man, Richard Anderson's career dates back to the golden age of Hollywood. Born in 1926, he made his movie debut in 1947 – just like Marilyn Monroe. Anderson would later appear in Bus Stop, a TV series based on Marilyn's 1956 movie. But as he reveals in a new book, Richard Anderson – At Last…, their first encounter occurred long before she appeared before a camera.
"Part of my job as Commissioner of Safety at University High was to sit at the east gate to make sure that the students had a pass to come to school and leave.
One day, I was eating a 15-cent lunch of egg salad sandwich and my favourite dessert – sherbet.
Sitting there eating raspberry sherbet, the east gate door opens and in walks this lady. Blonde with everything else that counts. She gave me a big smile, and I stopped eating.
'How are you?' she murmured.
'I'm fine now,' I said…
From the east gate to the main building is a long, long walk. She smiled her beautiful smile and then slowly moved away – very slowly – I watched the way she moved until she was out of sight. What a walk. I was transfixed. I also wasn't hungry anymore…
Moreover, I forgot to ask for her pass!
I would later learn that her name was Norma Jeane Mortenson. But she will be forever be known to all as…Marilyn Monroe."
Anderson was also a student at University High School, volunteering for the Commissioner of Safety post in 1941. Norma Jeane's first boyfriend, Chuck Moran – whom she dated that year – was a University High student, although at the time of their relationship, Norma Jeane attended Emerson Junior High.
In September 1941, while living with Grace Goddard and her family, Norma Jeane enrolled at Van Nuys High. But in February 1942, after Grace's husband was promoted to a post in his native West Virginia, fifteen year-old Norma Jeane returned to live with Ana Lower, and transferred to University High. By June, she had left school to marry Jim Dougherty.
Norma Jeane was not yet a blonde at this time, although she could be described as 'California blonde' (because her hair lightened in the sun.) But Anderson's story rings true. By the late 1940s, he was a member of the Actors Lab in Los Angeles, recalling that Marilyn and John Garfield were also regulars.
He also recalls seeing Marilyn, now a major star, in the Fox Commissary with her Monkey Business co-star Cary Grant and director Howard Hawks. Grant went to the trouble of introducing her to Anderson. However, she recognised him instantly.
This story is also believable, as Marilyn never took even the smallest kindness for granted. Anderson writes that he was on loan to Fox for A Life of Her Own (starring Lana Turner), but that film was made at MGM in 1950, two years before Monkey Business.
Writing for the BFI blog, Samuel Wigley names Monkey Business – the Howard Hawks farce in which Marilyn plays the hapless Miss Laurel – among co-star Cary Grant's ten best movies. (Wigley gets one thing wrong, though – Lois is the only main character who doesn't take the serum, and is thus the 'straight woman' of the story.)
"No apologies for listing all five of the Grant-Hawks collaborations in a Grant top 10. Their last together, 1952's Monkey Business is the silliest of the lot and features Grant as Dr Barnaby Fulton, an absent-minded professor whose newly invented elixir of youth ends up being mixed inside the water cooler by a lab chimpanzee. One-by-one Fulton, his wife (Ginger Rogers) and his secretary (Marilyn Monroe) are reverted to the state of immature, prank-pulling children. Echoes of Bringing Up Baby abound in the showdown between fusty expertise and unfettered animal instinct, and if Rogers is little match for Hepburn, Monroe positively sparkles in this early role."
Charles Coburn – Marilyn's venerable co-star in Monkey Business and Gentleman Prefer Blondes – is profiled today at Immortal Ephemera. The article mentions an interview Coburn gave to columnist Bob Thomas -published in December 1952, while Blondes was in production.
"In the early fifties Coburn supported Cary Grant from the same office as Marilyn Monroe in Monkey Business (1952). A year later Coburn found himself supporting Marilyn in the classic Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953), also starring Jane Russell. 'I can't think of any more pleasant work than watching Miss Monroe and Miss Russell,' Coburn told Bob Thomas late in 1952. 'Each possesses sex appeal to a remarkable degree. That is a kind of animal magnetism which is rare in human beings.' Then, showing his age, Coburn added, 'Some of the great figures of the theatre had it—women like Anna Held and Lillian Russell.' Coburn also appreciated their sense of humor and how down to earth each of the younger actresses were. 'Neither of them has let fame go to her head; they are regular and don't put on airs.'"
In 1957, Marilyn would impersonate Lillian Russell – one of the most famous actresses of the late 19th and early 20th century, when Coburn's long career was just beginning – for her 'Fabled Enchantresses' photo shoot with Richard Avedon, published in Life magazine.
Actress Eleanor Parker – perhaps best-known for her role as the scheming baroness in the 1965 musical, The Sound of Music – has died aged 91.
Born in Ohio, Eleanor Jean Parker made her screen debut at 18, in They Died With Their Boots On (1941.) However, her scenes were cut. Signed to Warner Brothers, she played Mildred Rogers in Of Human Bondage (1946); and starred in the 1948 adaptation of Wilkie Collins' mystery novel, The Woman in White.
In 1950, Parker was nominated for an Oscar for her role as a teenage convict in Caged. She was nominated again in 1951, for another Noir role, in Detective Story. Her third nomination was for Interrupted Melody (1955), a biopic in which she played Marjorie Lawrence, an Australian opera singer stricken with polio. She also starred alongside Frank Sinatra in The Man With the Golden Arm (1956), a harrowing look at heroin addiction; and in another Maugham story, The Seventh Sin (a 1957 remake of Garbo's The Painted Veil.)
Parker had three children, and found lasting happiness with her fourth husband, Raymond N. Hirsch, whom she married in 1966. Her last screen role was in 1991. An unusually versatile actress, Parker was known as the 'woman of a thousand faces'.
What movie fans may not know is that Eleanor Parker was also a friend of Marilyn Monroe. They met during the late 1940s, when they were both living at the Hollywood Studio Club, a hostel for aspiring actresses – as Marilyn later revealed in 'I Want Women to Like Me!', a signed-by (or approved) article, published in Photoplay magazine's November 1952 issue.

"Scales are very triggering," she said. "I think people are being insensitive because they simply don't understand. They think eating disorders are a choice when they are actually a serious illness."
But she was in the minority, as many other students criticized the college for pandering to special snowflakes. "Next it will be the mirrors," wrote another student on Facebook.
Speaking to CBC, Marshall says that the school will reconsider its decision to remove the scale due to the backlash. "We shouldn't remove something because some people abuse it," said Marko Miljusevic, a second-year student. "If they can't handle the number that shows up on the scale then don't step on it."
I learned it's illegal in my state to refuse to use someone's preferred pronoun. Almost every presenter had a story of a time they got a coworker, employee, or boss fired. A speaker (pronouns xe, xyr, xemself) passionately told us of a time when xe had an older coworker who referred to xem as "ma'am." When xe repeatedly told him xe preferred to be referred to as xem, he responded that he couldn't, because he had been brought up to be polite and use sir and ma'am.
A quick visit to the supervisor resulted in the coworker being fired. There was standing ovation in the conference hall, with one member of the audience saying how "brave" xe was to enact change. Xe publicly responded that xe "needed to go above his head to get what I needed."

Thoughts on preprints and citations
A couple of months ago Micah J. Marty and I had a twitter conversation and subsequent email exchange about how citations worked with preprints. I asked Micah if I could share our email discussion since I thought it would be useful to others and he kindly said yes. What follows are Michah's questions followed by my responses.
Right now, I am finishing up a multi-chapter Master's thesis and I plan to publish a few papers from my work. I may want to submit a preprint of one manuscript but before I propose this avenue to my advisor, I want to understand it fully myself. And I have remaining questions about the syntax of citing works when preprints come into play. What happens to a citation of a preprint after the manuscript is later published in a peer reviewed venue?
At the level of the journal nothing happens. So, if you cite a preprint in a published ms, and that preprint is later published as a paper, then the citation is still to the preprint. However, some of the services indexing citations recognize the relationship between the preprint and the paper and aggregate the citations. Specifically, Google Scholar treats the preprint and the published paper as the same for citation analysis purposes. See the citation record for our paper on Best practices for scientific computing which has been cited 49 times, but the vast majority of those are citations to the preprints.
Here's an example with names we can play with: Manuscript 1 (M1) may require some extra analysis, but it presents some important unexpected results that I would like to get out on the table as soon as possible. M1 is submitted to PeerJ Preprints and accepted (i.e., published online as a preprint with a DOI). M2 is submitted to Marine Ecology Progress Series (MEPS) for peer review, and M2 cites the PeerJ Preprint M1.
Just a point related to vocabulary, I wouldn't typically think of the preprint as being "accepted". Any checking prior to posting is just a quick glance to make sure that it isn't embarrassingly bad, so as long as it's reasonably written and doesn't have a title like "E is not equal to mc squared" it will be posted almost immediately (within 48 hours on most preprint servers).
1) Are preprints considered "grey literature"? That is, is it illegitimate for M2 to cite a work that has not been peer reviewed?
Yes, in the sense that they haven't been formally peer reviewed prior to posting they are similar to "grey literature". Whether or not they can be cited depends on the journal. Some journals are happy to allow citing of preprints. For example, this recent paper in TREE cites a preprint of ours on arXiv. Their paper was published before ours was accepted, so if it wasn't for the preprint it couldn't have been cited.
2) Is there a problem if M1 is eventually published in a peer reviewed journal but the published article of M2 cites only the PeerJ Preprint of M1?
I would say no for two reasons. First, assuming that M2 is published before M1 then the choice is between having a citation to something that people can read, science can benefit from, and that can potentially be indexed (giving you citation credit) vs. a citation to "Marty et al. unpublished data", which basically does nothing. Second, all preprint servers provide a mechanism for linking to the final version, so if someone finds the preprint via a citation in M2 then that link will point them in the direction of the final version that they can then read/cite/etc.
In short, I think as long as you aren't planning on submitting to a behind the times journal that doesn't allow the submission of papers that have been posted as preprints (and the list of journals with this policy is shrinking rapidly) then there is no downside to posting preprints. In the best case scenario it can lead to more people reading your research and citing it. The worst case scenario is exactly the same as if you didn't post a preprint.
How technology can help scientists with chronic illnesses (or Technology FTW!)
This is a guest post by Elita Baldridge (@elitabaldridge)
I am currently the remotely working member of Weecology, finishing up my PhD in the lower elevation and better air of Kansas, while the rest of my colleagues are still in Utah, due to developing a chronic illness and finally getting diagnosed with fibromyalgia. The relocation is actually working out really well. I'm in better shape because I'm not having to fight the air too, and I'm finally making real progress toward finishing my dissertation again.
I ruthlessly culled everything that wasn't directly working on my dissertation. I was going to attend the Gordon Conference this year, as I had heard fantastic things about it for years, but had not been ready to go yet, but I had to drop that because I wasn't physically able to travel. I did not go to ESA, because I couldn't travel. There are working groups and workshops galore, all involving travel, which I cannot do. Right now, the closest thing that we have to bringing absent scientists to an event is live tweeting, which is not nearly as good as hearing a speaker for yourself, and is pretty heartbreaking if you had to cancel your plans to attend an event because you were too infirm to go.The tools that I'm using to do science remotely are not just for increasing accessibility for a single chronically ill macroecologist. They are good tools for science in general. I'm using GitHub to version control my code, and Dropbox to share data and figures. Ethan can see what I'm working on as I'm doing it, and I've got a clear record of what I was doing and what decisions that I made. While my cognitive dysfunction may be a bit more extreme of a problem, I know that we've all stayed up too late coding and broken something we shouldn't have and the ability to wave the magic Git wand and make any poor decisions that I made while my brain was out to lunch go away is priceless.
Open access? Having open access to papers is really important when you are going to be faced shortly with probably not having any institutional access anymore. Also, important for everyone else who isn't at a major university with very expensive subscriptions to all the journals. Having open access to data and code is crucial when you can't collect your own data and are going to be doing research from your home computer on the cheap because you can't rely on your body to work reliably at any given point in time.
Video conferencing is working well for me to meet with the lab, but could also be great for attending conferences and workshops. This would not only be good for a certain macroecologist, but would also be good to include people from smaller universities, etc. who would like to participate in these type of things too, but can't otherwise due to the travel. I did my master's degree at Fort Hays State University, and I still love it dearly. This type of increased accessibility would have been great for me while I was a perfectly healthy master's student. Fort Hays is a primarily undergraduate institution in the middle of Kansas, about four hours away from any major city, and it does not have some of the resources that a larger university would have. No seminar series, no workshops, not much travel money to go to workshops or conferences, which doesn't mean that good science can't still be happening.
Many of my labmates are looking for post-docs, or are already in postdoc positions at this point. I'm very excited for all of them, and await eagerly all the stories of the exciting new things they are doing. Having a chronic illness limits what I am capable of doing physically. I am not going to be able to move across the country for a post-doc. That does not mean that I do not want to play science too. I've got my home base set up, and I can reach pretty far from here. I still want to be a part of living science, I don't want to have to get to the party after everyone else has gone home.
And I wonder, why can I not do these things? Is it not the future? Do we not have the internet, with video chat? I get to meet with Ethan and talk science at our weekly meetings every week. I go to lab meetings with video chat, and get to see what my labmates are doing, and crack jokes, and laugh at other people's jokes. It wouldn't be hard to get me to conferences and working groups either.
With technology, I get to be a part of living, breathing science, and it is a beautiful thing.
Ecology Letters now allows preprints; and why this is a big deal for ecology
As announced by Noam Ross on Twitter (and confirmed by the Editor in Chief of Ecology Letters), Ecology Letters will now allow the submission of manuscripts that have been posted as preprints. Details will be published in an editorial in Ecology Letters. I want to say a heartfelt thanks to Marcel Holyoak and the entire Ecology Letters editorial board for listening to the ecological community and modifying their policies. Science is working a little better today than it was yesterday thanks to their efforts.
For those of you who are new to the concept of preprints, they are manuscripts, that have not yet been published in peer reviewed journals, which are posted to websites like arXiv, PeerJ, and bioRxiv. This process allows for more rapid communication of scientific results and improved quality of published papers though more expansive pre-publication peer-review. If you'd like to read more check out our paper on The Case for Open Preprints in Biology.
The fact that Ecology Letters now allows preprints is a big deal for ecology because they were the last of the major ecology journals to make the transition. The ESA journals began allowing preprints just over two years ago and the BES journals made the switch about 9 months ago. In addition, Science, Nature, PNAS, PLOS Biology, and a number of other ecology journals (e.g., Biotropica) all support preprints. This means that all of the top ecology journals, and all of the top general science journals that most ecologists publish in, allow the posting of preprints. As such, there is not longer a reason to not post preprints based on the possibility of not being able to publish in a preferred journal. This can potentially shave months to years off of the time between discovery and initial communication of results in ecology.
It also means that other ecology journals that still do not allow the posting of preprints are under significant pressure to change their policies. With all of the big journals allowing preprints they have no reasonable excuse for not modernizing their policies, and they risk loosing out on papers that are initially submitted to higher profile journals and are posted as preprints.
It's a good day for science. Celebrate by posting your next manuscript as a preprint.
Which preprint server should I use?
Preprints are rapidly becoming popular in biology as a way to speed up the process of science, get feedback on manuscripts prior to publication, and establish precedence (Desjardins-Proulx et al. 2013). Since biologists are still learning about preprints I regularly get asked which of the available preprint servers to use. Here's the long-form version of my response.
The good news is that you can't go wrong right now. The posting of a preprint and telling people about it is far more important than the particular preprint server you choose. All of the major preprint servers are good choices.Of course you still need to pick one and the best way to do that is to think about the differences between available options. Here's my take on four of the major preprint servers: arXiv, bioRxiv, PeerJ, and figshare.
arXiv is the oldest of the science preprint servers. As a result it is the most well established, it is well respected, more people have heard of it than any of the other preprint servers, and there is no risk of it disappearing any time soon. The downside to having been around for a long time is that arXiv is currently missing some features that are increasingly valued on the modern web. In particular there is currently no ability to comment on preprints (though they are working on this) and there are no altmetrics (things like download counts that can indicate how popular a preprint is). The other thing to consider is that arXiv's focus is on the quantitative sciences, which can be both a pro and a con. If you do math, physics, computer science, etc., this is the preprint server for you. If you do biology it depends on the kind of research you do. If your work is quantitative then your research may be seen by folks outside of your discipline working on related quantitative problems. If your work isn't particularly quantitative it won't fit in as well. arXiv allows an array of licenses that can either allow or restrict reuse. In my experience it can take about a week for a preprint to go up on arXiv and the submission process is probably the most difficult of the available options (but it's still far easier than submitting a paper to a journal).
bioRxiv is the new kid on the block having launched less than a year ago. It has both commenting and altmetrics, but whether it will become as established as arXiv and stick around for a long time remains to be seen. It is explicitly biology focused and accepts research of any kind in the biological sciences. If you're a biologist, this means that you're less likely to reach people outside of biology, but it may be more likely that biology folks come across your work. bioRxiv allows an array of licenses that can either allow or restrict reuse. However, they explicitly override the less open licenses for text mining purposes, so all preprints there can be text-mined. In my experience it can take about a week for a preprint to go up on bioRxiv.
PeerJ Preprints
PeerJ Preprints is another new preprint server that is focused on biology and accepts research from across the biological sciences. Like bioRxiv it has commenting and altmetrics. It is the fastest of the preprint servers, with less than 24 hours from submission to posting in my experience. PeerJ has a strong commitment to open access, so all of it's preprints are licensed with the Creative Commons Attribution License. PeerJ also publishes an open access journal, but you can post preprints to PeerJ Preprints with out submitting them to the journal (and this is very common). If you do decide to submit your manuscript to the PeerJ journal after posting it as a preprint you can do this with a single click and, should it be published, the preprint will be linked to the paper. PeerJ has the most modern infrastructure of any of the preprint servers, which makes for really pleasant submission, reading, and commenting experiences. You can also earn PeerJ reputation points for posting preprints and engaging in discussions about them. PeerJ is the only major preprint server run by a for-profit company. This is only an issue if you plan to submit your paper to a journal that only allows the posting of non-commercial preprints. I only know of only one journal with this restriction, but it is American Naturalist which can be an important journal in some areas of biology.
figshare is a place to put any kind of research output including data, figures, slides, and preprints. The benefit of this general approach to archiving research outputs is that you can use figshare to store all kinds of research outputs in the same place. The downside is that because it doesn't focus on preprints people may be less likely to find your manuscript among all of the other research objects. One of the things I like about this broad approach to archiving anything is that I feel comfortable posting that isn't really manuscripts. For example, I post grant proposals there. figshare accepts research from any branch of science and has commenting and altmetrics. There is no delay from submission to posting. Like PeerJ, figshare is a for-profit company and any document posted there will be licensed with the Creative Commons Attribution License.
Those are my thoughts. I have preprints on all three preprint servers + figshare and I've been happy with all three experiences. As I said at the beginning, the most important thing is to help speed up the scientific process by posting your work as preprints. Everything else is just details.
UPDATE: It looks like due to a hiccup with scheduling this post than an early version went out to some folks without the figshare section.
UPDATE: In the comments Richard Sever notes that bioRxiv's preprints are typically posted within 48 hours of submission and that their interpretation of the text mining clause is that this is covered by fair use. See our discussion in the comments for more details.
Sharing in Science: my full reply to Eli Kintisch
A couple of weeks ago Eli Kintisch (@elikint) interviewed me for what turned out to be a great article on "Sharing in Science" for Science Careers. He also interviewed Titus Brown (@ctitusbrown) who has since posted the full text of his reply, so I thought I'd do the same thing.
How has sharing code, data, R methods helped you with your scientific research?
Definitely. Sharing code and data helps the scientific community make more rapid progress by avoiding duplicated effort and by facilitating more reproducible research. Working together in this way helps us tackle the big scientific questions and that's why I got into science in the first place. More directly, sharing benefits my group's research in a number of ways:
- Sharing code and data results in the community being more aware of the research you are doing and more appreciative of the contributions you are making to the field as a whole. This results in new collaborations, invitations to give seminars and write papers, and access to excellent students and postdocs who might not have heard about my lab otherwise.
- Developing code and data so that it can be shared saves us a lot of time. We reuse each others code and data within the lab for different projects, and when a reviewer requests a small change in an analysis we can make a small change in our code and then regenerate the results and figures for the project by running a single program. This also makes our research more reproducible and allows me to quickly answer questions about analyses years after they've been conducted when the student or postdoc leading the project is no longer in the lab. We invest a little more time up front, but it saves us a lot of time in the long run. Getting folks to work this way is difficult unless they know they are going to be sharing things publicly.
- One of the biggest benefits of sharing code and data is in competing for grants. Funding agencies want to know how the money they spend will benefit science as a whole, and being able to make a compelling case that you share your code and data, and that it is used by others in the community, is important for satisfying this goal of the funders. Most major funding agencies have now codified this requirement in the form of data management plans that describe how the data and code will be managed and when and how it will be shared. Having a well established track record in sharing makes a compelling argument that you will benefit science beyond your own publications, and I have definitely benefited from that in the grant review process.
What barriers exist in your mind to more people doing so?
There is a lot of fear about openly sharing data and code. People believe that making their work public will result in being scooped or that their efforts will be criticized because they are too messy. There is a strong perception that sharing code and data takes a lot of extra time and effort. So the biggest barriers are sociological at the moment.
To address these barriers we need to be a better job of providing credit to scientists for sharing good data and code. We also need to do a better job of educating folks about the benefits of doing so. For example, in my experience, the time and effort dedicated to developing and documenting code and data as if you plan to share it actually ends up saving the individual research time in the long run. This happens because when you return to a project a few months or years after the original data collection or code development, it is much easier if the code and data are in a form that makes it easy to work with.
How has twitter helped your research efforts?
Twitter has been great for finding out about exciting new research, spreading the word about our research, getting feedback from a broad array of folks in the science and tech community, and developing new collaborations. A recent paper that I co-authored in PLOS Biology actually started as a conversation on twitter.
How has R Open Science helped you with your work, or why is it important or not?
rOpenSci is making it easier for scientists to acquire and analyze the large amounts of scientific data that are available on the web. They have been wrapping many of the major science related APIs in R, which makes these rich data sources available to large numbers of scientists who don't even know what an API is. It also makes it easier for scientists with more developed computational skills to get research done. Instead of spending time figuring out the APIs for potentially dozens of different data sources, they can simply access rOpenSci's suite of packages to quickly and easily download the data they need and get back to doing science. My research group has used some of their packages to access data in this way and we are in the process of developing a package with them that makes one of our Python tools for acquiring ecological data (the EcoData Retriever) easy to use in R.
Any practical tips you'd share on making sharing easier?
One of the things I think is most important when sharing both code and data is to use standard licences. Scientists have a habit of thinking they are lawyers and writing their own licenses and data use agreements that govern how the data and code and can used. This leads to a lot of ambiguity and difficulty in using data and code from multiple sources. Using standard open source and open data licences vastly simplifies the the process of making your work available and will allow science to benefit the most from your efforts.
And do you think sharing data/methods will help you get tenure? Evidence it has helped others?
I have tenure and I certainly emphasized my open science efforts in my packet. One of the big emphases in tenure packets is demonstrating the impact of your research, and showing that other people are using your data and code is a strong way to do this. Whether or not this directly impacted the decision to give me tenure I don't know. Sharing data and code is definitely beneficial to competing for grants (as I described above) and increasingly to publishing papers as many journals now require the inclusion of data and code for replication. It also benefits your reputation (as I described above). Since tenure at most research universities is largely a combination of papers, grants, and reputation, and I think that sharing at least increases one's chances of getting tenure indirectly.
UPDATE: Added missing link to Titus Brown's post: http://ivory.idyll.org/blog/2014-eli-conversation.html
British Ecological Society journals now allow preprints
The British Ecological Society has announced that will now allow the submission of papers with preprints (formal language here). This means that you can now submit preprinted papers to Journal of Ecology, Journal of Animal Ecology, Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Journal of Applied Ecology, and Functional Ecology. By allowing preprints BES joins the Ecological Society of America which instituted a pro-preprint policy last year. While BES's formal policy is still a little more vague than I would like*, they have confirmed via Twitter that even preprints with open licenses are OK as long as they are not updated following peer review.
Preprints are important because they:
- Speed up the progress of science by allowing research to be discussed and built on as soon as it is finished
- Allow early career scientists to establish themselves more rapidly
- Improve the quality of published research by allowing a potentially large pool reviewers to comment on and improve the manuscript (see our excellent experience with this)
BES getting on board with preprints is particularly great news because the number of ecology journals that do not allow preprints is rapidly shrinking to the point that ecologists will no longer need to consider where they might want to submit their papers when deciding whether or not to post preprints. The only major blocker at this point to my mind is Ecology Letters. So, my thanks to BES for helping move science forward!
*Which is why I waited 3 weeks for clarification before posting.
Exploring MaxEnt based species-area relationship predictions [Research Summary]
This is a guest post by Dan McGlinn, a weecology postdoc (@DanMcGlinn on Twitter). It is a Research Summary of: McGlinn, D.J., X. Xiao, and E.P. White. 2013. An empirical evaluation of four variants of a universal species–area relationship. PeerJ 1:e212 http://dx.doi.org/10.7717/peerj.212. These posts are intended to help communicate our research to folks who might not have the time, energy, expertise, or inclination to read the full paper, but who are interested in a <1000 general language summary.
It is well established in ecology that if the area of a sample is increased you will in general see an increase in the number species observed. There are a lot of different reasons why larger areas harbor more species: larger areas contain more individuals, habitats, and environmental variation, and they are likely to cross more barriers to dispersal – all things that promote more species to be able to exist together in an area. We typically observe relatively smooth and simple looking increases in species number with area. This observation has mystified ecologists: How can a pattern that should be influenced by many different and biologically idiosyncratic processes appear so similar across scales, taxonomic groups, and ecological systems?
Recently a theory was proposed (Harte et al. 2008, Harte et al. 2009) which suggests that detailed knowledge of the complex processes that influence the increase in species number may not be necessary to accurately predict the pattern. The theory proposes that ecological systems tend to simply be in their most likely configuration. Specifically, the theory suggests that if we have information on the total number of species and individuals in an area then we can predict the number of species in smaller portions of that area.
Published work on this new theory suggests that it has potential for accurately predicting how species number changes with area; however, it has not been appreciated that there are actually four different ways that the theory can be operationalized to make a prediction. We were interested to learn
- Can the theory accurately predict how species number changes with area across many different ecological systems, and
- Do the different versions of the theory consistently perform better than others
To answer these questions we needed data. We searched online and made requests to our colleagues for datasets that documented the spatial configuration of ecological communities. We were able to pull together a collection of 16 plant community datasets. The communities spanned a wide range of systems including hyper-diverse, old-growth tropical forests, a disturbance prone tropical forest, temperate oak-hickory and pine forests, a Mediterranean mixed-evergreen forest, a low diversity oak woodland, and a serpentine grassland.
Fig 1. A) Results from one of the datasets, the open circles display the observed data and the lines are the four different versions of the theory we examined. B) A comparison of the observed and predicted number of species across all areas and communities we examined for one of the versions of the theory.
Across the different communities we found that the theory was generally quite accurate at predicting the number of species (Fig 1 above), and that one of the versions of the theory was typically better than the others in terms of the accuracy of its predictions and the quantity of information it required to make predictions. There were a couple of noteworthy exceptions in our results. The low diversity oak woodland and the serpentine grassland both displayed unusual patterns of change in richness. The species in the serpentine grassland were more spatially clustered than was typically observed in the other communities and thus better described by the versions of the theory that predicted stronger clustering. Abundance in the oak woodland was primarily distributed across two species whereas the other 5 species where only observed once or twice. This unusual pattern of abundance resulted in a rather unique S-shaped relationship between the number of species and area and required inputting the observed species abundances to accurately model the pattern.
The two key findings from our study were
- The theory provides a practical tool for accurately predicting the number of species in sub-samples of a given site using only information on the total number of species and individuals in that entire area.
- The different versions of the theory do make different predictions and one appears to be superior
Of course there are still a lot of interesting questions to address. One question we are interested in is whether or not we can predict the inputs of the theory (total number of species and individuals for a community) using a statistical model and then plug those predictions into the theory to generate accurate fine-scaled predictions. This kind of application would be important for conservation applications because it would allow scientists to estimate the spatial pattern of rarity and diversity in the community without having to sample it directly. We are also interested in future development of the theory that provides predictions for the number of species at areas that are larger (rather than smaller) than the reference point which may have greater applicability to conservation work.
The accuracy of the theory also has the potential to help us understand the role of specific biological processes in shaping the relationship between species number and area. Because the theory didn't include any explicit biological processes, our findings suggest that specific processes may only influence the observed relationship indirectly through the total number of species and individuals. Our results do not suggest that biological processes are not shaping the relationship but only that their influence may be rather indirect. This may be welcome news to practitioners who rely on the relationship between species number and area to devise reserve designs and predict the effects of habitat loss on diversity.

Auction theory has recently revealed that multi-unit uniform-price auctions, such as those used by the U.S. Treasury for debt sales, entail demand-reduction incentives that can cause inefficient allocations. Recent experimental results show that bidders do indeed strategically reduce their bids in uniform-price auctions. The present paper extends this work,… (More)

Author J.K. Rowling's website Pottermore.com has announced that the Harry Potter creator has penned a brand new story, which will go live on the site on Oct. 31.
The story will feature Dolores Umbridge, a witch and former Hogwarts professor, who first appeared in the fifth Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, which was published in 2003. Umbridge was played by actor Imelda Staunton in the film adaptation of the series.
« Umbridge is not only one of the most malicious Potter characters, she is the only person other than Lord Voldemort to leave a permanent physical scar on Harry, » reads the update posted to Pottermore.com on Friday. « The new exclusive J.K. Rowling content provides a rich, 1,700-word back story about Umbridge's life filled with many new details, as well as Rowling's revealing first-person thoughts and reflections about the character. »

ok, ok I'm done now. Have tried and tried but NCEL has finally gotten me what are the chances that the 182 would hit again. No more lottery for me. Just can't seem to hit the broad side of a barn these days.
What are the chances you ask:
Now the chances of people behind the scenes in NCEL headquarters helping this happen...
Probably 1/3
Technics is mighty quite...what's up Technics?
How many times did you get it for today...maybe 15?....hope so!
Enjoy the Ride
Maybe we had better look and see if the lady has the same clothes on as she did in last night's drawing!...
chellllllllllllla wtg to you boo u e kiiiilin ittttttttttii am so happy for u
<snip> wish I had played 182 midday after luck people had last night. when I checked the number I thought for sure it was an error and still dont believe it. NCEL really has me ticked off of late. A number like 925 hasnt hit for almost ever and 182 hits in 2 straight draws. I am tempted to put 50 cents on 182 tonight

Might not be a bad idea to play it again...stranger things have happened with NCEL...you just never ever know what will fall...that's for sure!
May come as I played it today....812!
well look like almost exact same payout as last night so looks like same people likely won again with a few who jumped on NC repeats
actually the odds of any number being drawn are 1 in 1000
Chella and Vergie. WTG. Good luck tonite.
Thanks Mimigrand!
Good luck to you for tonight!
Not if you play them boxed.
I told you before I'm not that easily fooled..this seems like a very clear indication of fraud/cheating...NCEL already has an incredible "HOUSE EDGE" due to very low payout/odds.
NCEL should have kicked that number out in thier pre-draws so as not to look like it was cheating/tampering,but did they? Helll no they didn't because they know most if not all people dont play based on 1/1,000,00 odds...and who does?
Like Ive said over and over again its theoretically impossible for that to happen...
I'm taking a break for awhile...all the fun is gone not that this game was ever "FAIR" to begin with...
Actually,you need to take a math course or else just remain silent...we are talking about a "REPEAT OCCURENCE"...!!!
Everybody play 263 you never know with NC
Technics is justing getting in from picking his daughter up from private school that he pays for with lottery money...
This is the most fun i have ever had losing money....i stopped at the gas station near my daughters school to have the attendant look at the results in shock and say "darn, its the same number as last night or they made a print error " he hands me the ticket and i see 182 twice. i immediately start shouting "chella chella chella, that dayum chella " the attendant says "who is chella" i say " the owner of this number (182) i proceeded to leave the store in histerics laughing my azz off knowing full well i spent $40 and didnt hit the side of the barn....AND i just told all of you on here that 182 is a very fast number and it will repeat quick...so my day has been made knowing that chella made out and i had fun losing.....BUT....because that happened..what i intended to play is still on the way so i am still a winner !!!! thanks chella for buying me more time on my number....love you !!!!
today 3,443 winning shares won a total of $267,430 last night 3,800 winning shares won a total of $259,280
it paid more today than last night too ???????????

again sorry to the Linux and Mac people out there
Microsoft Photosynth tries to arrange a series of photos in to a 3-D arrangement. What I found in making Midsomer Isle is it still is a bit primitive. But it seems fun and I will work to make a series of public 3-D images of places in SL.

I always say sorry to Linux users for the Microsoft plugin not supported.
I am a Linux guy myself. I have a Debian box and Ubuntu laptop.
But the Photosynth technology has two facts. The first is that it is a very interesting technology to produce a 3-D image from 2-D information. The other is it is from Microsoft.
I have done some work on other mashups running on Pipes, Ning, and Google to offer more to my viewers.

Under pressure, Government suspends study of dams on the River Tapajós
Munduruku Victory
Under pressure, Government suspends study of dams on the River Tapajós
Pressed by two months of confrontation and Munduruku Indians ' resistance, the federal Government suspended the Tapajós River region for the construction of dams. The announcement was made during a meeting in a public square in the late afternoon of Sunday, 23, (June 23, 2013) in the far west of Pará Jacareacanga,. The researchers who were in indigenous area left the city.
"Funai and the federal Government as a whole is suspending any research that is being done here in your region," said the Advisor to the President of the National Indian Foundation Lucia Alberg, despite Minister Gilberto Carvalho have publicly announced that it would not suspend works or studies.
"We are feeling very happy", the head of the Munduruku Paygomuyatpu warriors. "She still did not give us any proof of this, we are waiting for proof, but we are very pleased with what she said". In May and June, the Munduruku Indians conducted a multitude of actions requiring the suspension of works and studies of dams on the rivers Tapajós and Teles Pires, where live 13 thousand Munduruku people.
In May, after a meeting that brought together more than 200 women, chiefs, and warriors, the Munduruku leaders marched through the streets of Jacareacanga and joined other indigenous Tapajós River basin and the Middle Xingu. There were two occupations that paralyzed the works of the Belo Monte hydroelectric power plant for 17 days, traveled to the capital, where they performed a March, occupied the headquarters of Funai and protests at the Ministry of mines and energy and at the Presidential Palace. Last Friday, a group of 40 warriors drove about 25 researchers from the Project company, providing services of Tapajós study group, a consortium composed of Camargo Correia, GDF Suez and Eletrobras, among others.
In this context, the Munduruku suffered a process of criminalization, defamation and prosecution by the federal Government. Public notes, statements to the press and lawsuits accused the Indians of criminals and Liars, questioning the legitimacy of the Munduruku leaders, who entered with call against criminal statements of Minister Gilberto Carvalho.
"We release the researchers. We don't want to see them here, "explains Maria Leusa Kabá, leadership. "If they come back, we'll take the head of researchers. We are warriors. Our ancient warriors are known for being head cutters. We do not forget our past ", reminds Leusa.
"We will continue in our struggle. We don't want them [studies] are suspended. We want the studies and works to be cancelled. The suspension is a partial victory, "concludes Paygomuyatpu.
