After two mysterious earthquake swarms occurred under the Sea of Galilee, researchers found a relationship between these small quakes and the excessive extraction of groundwater. Science journalist Michael Price talks with host Sarah Crespi about making this connection and what it means for water-deprived fault areas like the Sea of Galilee and the state of California. Also this week, Sarah talks with graduate student Adrian Baez-Ortega from the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom’s Transmissible Cancer Group about the genome of a canine venereal cancer that has been leaping from dog to dog for about 8000 years. By comparing the genomes of this cancer from dogs around the globe, the researchers were able to learn more about its origins and spread around the world. They also discuss how such a long-lived cancer might help them better understand and treat human cancers. This week’s episode was edited by Podigy.

Perhaps one should be able to speak of the ills or even just the shortcomings along with the good and the superlatives.

For 10 years, the South by Southwest (SXSW) EDU conference has provided a venue to share cutting-edge ideas and tools with a community of creative and passionate changemakers who want to advance teaching and learning.

This toolkit aims to help states develop a plan for Title IV-E prevention services, and to assist states in planning an array of services to help address substance use, mental health, and parenting issues (“prevention services”).

MERRICK:  Very cool! CHUCK:  Yeah, we like Spotify. MERRICK:  Is that the headquarters of Spotify is in Sweden? VALERIO:  Yeah, this is the where the magic happens. They have other offices but they're not as important as the Swedish one. [Laughter] VALERIO:  I'm kidding. Everybody’s important, not just the Swedish one. CHUCK:  Very nice, very nice. Alright. So, do you guys want to just take a minute and explain what MooTools is? I think people have some idea, but just to get kind of a base line for the rest of the conversation. VALERIO:  Yes,

RYAN:  Hey, how’s it going? CHUCK:  So, you haven’t been on the show before. Do you want to introduce yourself? RYAN:  Sure. Ryan Florence. I’m from Utah like a lot of you guys. I’ve been writing JavaScript for five years now or something like that. I just picked it up. I was sick of the engineers at my company telling me that things were impossible. So, I started to show them that it was possible and then ended up getting paid more money. CHUCK:  Is that at Instructure or is that somewhere else? RYAN:  No, that was at a company actually in Idaho. CHUCK:  Ah, I see. RYAN:  So now, I work at Instructure. We build a learning management system for schools and universities. We also have Canvas.net, which is open courses for anyone to take. There are some pretty interesting ones on there like gender and comic books, things like that. It’s a fun place to work, fun product to work on. CHUCK:  Yeah, you inherited a lot of my old coworkers. I used to work for Mozy. RYAN:  Yeah, half our engineering team used to be Mozy. But I think we have offset them at this point.

The panelists talk about browser tools and extensions.

Join AJ, Aimee, and Joe as they discuss Mozilla Firefox Developer Tools with Jason Laster. Jason just started working at Mozilla since March. But even before that, he has been working on Chrome's dev tool extension called Marionette. That's when he discovered that the browser is an open source that anyone can play with. Now, he is working on a new debugger in Firefox. Tune in!
