Add the following to your ~/.bashrc:

# <--------- Cool Functions by Crouse-------->
# Cool Functions for your .bashrc file.

# Weather by us zip code - Can be called two ways # weather 50315 # weather "Des Moines"
weather ()
{
declare -a WEATHERARRAY
WEATHERARRAY=( `lynx -dump "http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&q=weather+${1}&btnG=Search" | grep -A 5 -m 1 "Weather for"`)
echo ${WEATHERARRAY[@]}
}

# Stock prices - can be called two ways. # stock novl (this shows stock pricing) #stock "novell" (this way shows stock symbol for novell)
stock ()
{
stockname=`lynx -dump http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=${1} | grep -i ":${1})" | sed -e 's/Delayed.*$//'`
stockadvise="${stockname} - delayed quote."
declare -a STOCKINFO
STOCKINFO=(` lynx -dump http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=${1} | egrep -i "Last Trade:|Change:|52wk Range:"`)
stockdata=`echo ${STOCKINFO[@]}`
if [[ ${#stockname} != 0 ]] ;then
echo "${stockadvise}"
echo "${stockdata}"
else
stockname2=${1}
lookupsymbol=`lynx -dump -nolist http://finance.yahoo.com/lookup?s="${1}" | grep -A 1 -m 1 "Portfolio" | grep -v "Portfolio" | sed 's/\(.*\)Add/\1 /'`
if [[ ${#lookupsymbol} != 0 ]] ;then
echo "${lookupsymbol}"
else
echo "Sorry $USER, I can not find ${1}."
fi
fi
}

#Translate a Word - USAGE: translate house spanish # See dictionary.com for available languages (there are many).
translate ()
{
TRANSLATED=`lynx -dump "http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/${1}" | grep -i -m 1 -w "${2}:" | sed 's/^[ \t]*//;s/[ \t]*$//'`
if [[ ${#TRANSLATED} != 0 ]] ;then
echo "\"${1}\" in ${TRANSLATED}"
else
echo "Sorry, I can not translate \"${1}\" to ${2}"
fi
}

# Define a word - USAGE: define dog
define ()
{
lynx -dump "http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=define%3A+${1}&btnG=Google+Search" | grep -m 3 -w "*" | sed 's/;/ -/g' | cut -d- -f1 > /tmp/templookup.txt
if [[ -s /tmp/templookup.txt ]] ;then
until ! read response
do
echo "${response}"
done < /tmp/templookup.txt
else
echo "Sorry $USER, I can't find the term \"${1} \""
fi
rm -f /tmp/templookup.txt
}

and install lynx. This makes it possible to run commands like 'weather 98374' or 'define ubuntu' in the terminal and get an accurate output. Thanks to crouse of the arch forums.
