Some free and legal David Byrne/Brian Eno. They are encouraging people to remix this. When I was a youth, "remix culture" didn't exist.
Tip: think of your research paper as a remixing of existing knowledge, combined with your own insights.

dailypennsylvanian.com - Penn prof: Point shaving possibly a factor in tourney: "Wolfers observed that in games with double-digit favorites, those teams tend to barely miss covering the spread. For example, in games with 14-point spreads, the favorite often tends to win by 12 or 13, winning by 15 or 16 far less often. In addition, while small favorites cover the spread about 50 percent of the time, large favorites only cover in 47 percent of the games."

ABC News: 'Freakonomics': What Makes a Perfect Parent?: "Steven Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, co-authors of the best-selling 'Freakonomics,' pored through a massive government database called the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study. Starting in the late 1990s, it followed 20,000 American children, collecting information on many aspects of their lives. Levitt and Dubner used the ECLS to see what helps young children do well on tests.
'Not only does it measure their scores,' said Dubner. 'It also conducts extensive interviews with the families of the kids, so we know a lot about each family and what they do in the family.'"

Daily Herald - BYU study: Perceived racism leads to depression among Hispanics: "BYU study: Perceived racism leads to depression among Hispanics PDF | Print | E-mail
Daily Herald
PROVO -- Perceived racism may lead to depression and sleep problems in Utah's Hispanic community, according to a new study by a Brigham Young University researcher.
Previous studies have linked depression and sleep disorders, said BYU clinical psychologist Patrick Steffen, but his new study looks at racism, sleep disorders and depression together.
'We found that perceived racism impacts the quality of their sleep and that disturbed sleep is related to depression,' Steffen told the Deseret Morning News in a copyright story.
The perceived racism causes depression because those affected have difficulty determining where they fit in with other people, said Monroe White, a clinical psychologist at the Mountainlands Community Health Clinic in Provo."
