Note For Note: A Place To Bury Strangers, Exitmusic | Music | NUVO News | Indianapolis, IN – For those who claim an indifference to the shoegazing genre, simply crank the volume until the brittle distortions become tidal waves of sound.

Using GIS from the Chronicle of Higher Education

Two articles about using GIS from the Chronicle of Higher Education

Using the WorldMap Platform – ProfHacker – The Chronicle of Higher Education – “Since my demands for GIS are relatively limited, and I neither want to assume Iâ€™ll always have access to school licensing for ArcGIS, or want to payout for expensive software, I was delighted to find that an open source application QGIS that, while as frustrating to learn as ArcGIS, is free and works on Windows, Linux, and the Max OS X. Even in the year I have been using it, the software has improved considerably, and the community of users and online resources behind it has also exploded.”
