CoyoteSwamp: October 2014
http://coyoteswamp.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Dangerous toys. Too much caffeine. Advanced degree in physics. This isn't going anywhere you want to be. Thursday, October 30, 2014. The term popped up on xkcd. The answer btw is 4/pi - 1/2. You can get it either analytically. Then this popped up on SMBC today. Sometimes work feels like this. Next question: replace each of the resistors in the xkcd problem with a 1pF capacitor and a 1uH inductor, wired in series. What will be the resulting impedance, as a function of input frequency? Here's their web site.

DX International radio: Good news on SW: Global 24 & Voice of Mongolia
http://dxinternational.blogspot.com/2014/10/goood-news-on-sw-global-24-voice-of.html
Friday, 31 October 2014. Good news on SW: Global 24 and Voice of Mongolia. Some good shortwave news for a change! Hats off to Radio 700 in Kall, Germany. Their trial relays of the Voice of Mongolia’s English service in early autumn resulted in such a deluge of correspondence to both Radio 700 and The Voice of Mongolia that the arrangement is continuing to the end of 2014 (and hopefully beyond). Don’t miss out on these three opportunities every day to hear the Voice of Mongolia. Manchester, United Kingdom.
