Posts by Dr. F are fewer and further between than I’d like, but like fine wine they are worth the wait. This one is no exception (but it is exceptional).

“Both genders do shitty things. I think because we’re in a patriarchal society and a lot things favor men, a lot of people don’t take their problems seriously. When you are in the favoured group, a lot of your valid complaints are ridiculed…”
All morning long, I was asked to explain what I had brought for lunch. I didn’t really know what to call it. It wasn’t lasagna anymore (no pasta). It wasn’t even Italian. It resembled something out of a French kitchen or perhaps something out of the deep south in the USA. I simply told them it was a modified lasagna made with grits, spinach, and chicken. Given the looks I got, I was afraid no one would have the courage to even give it a try. So I tempted them with dessert. When I told them I’d also made oatmeal pie I thought they were going to toss me out into the street.
Being a chef in Southern California requires the ability to cook a handful of dishes from a wide variety of different ethnic cuisines. I can do this and I can do it fairly well… I had eaten chiliquillas once. It was nothing like what I fixed. But I suppose that what I fixed had enough of a resemblance to be given the name.
This assumption deals with Type I error rates, the rejection of a correct null hypothesis. A large difference between M and μ may lead a researcher to reject the null hypothesis when it is actually correct. This is related to the α level chosen to determine significance. An α of .05 indicates a 5% chance of making a Type I error, provided all the assumptions for NHST are met. Decreasing the α decreases that risk.
I have always been a fan of Arthurian legend. I remember watching a variety of shows and movies based on this legend as a young child. I read T. H. White’s The Once and Future King; Mary Stewart’s Merlin Trilogy (she wrote two others after I read the first three in the series, but I never read them); and several other novels, comics, and stories. So naturally, I was drawn to the British series Merlin currently airing on SyFy and available through Netflix.

The Online Compendium of Men’s Issues will now have its own website. The address is http://cmi.thedamnedoldeman.com. The Compendium is a catalogue that will attempt to identify and define the issues faced by today’s men. It is intended to be a one-stop reference for those who wish to learn or write about these issues. It is a work in progress and will remain so for the foreseeable future. Athough there may be some overlap, The Compendium will be completed in three phases. Phase 1 is currently in progress. This phase will identify, classify, and briefly define the issues. Phase 2 will provide a more in-depth discussion of each issue. Finally, phase 3 will include editorial opinion and commentary.
I’ve asked Dr. F if he would be interested in creating logos and banners for the site, as well as provide some orginal illustrations. I am also interested publishing original material from a variety of authors. Anyone interested in contributing to the site is welcome to submit the material. I’ll be working on some guidelines, but for now material can be submitted through the contact form on this site. Keep it professional and tasteful. Cite any sources. Provide links if possible, but non-electronic references are ok. The Compendium should read like a professional journal. All contributors will be credited as such.
Thank you and enjoy,
