Our humble site is featured in Tangled Bank #105, hosted at the Beagle Project, for our entry “How Ben Stein Destroyed Intelligent Design.”  For those of you who don’t know, Tangled Bank publishes a regular collection of blog posts on biology and science.  It’s administered by PZ Myers of Pharyngula: snark and knowledge are always guaranteed.

Also, good news everyone! I hope you’ve got a Starbucks venti iced chai latte handy (my favorite!), because we’ll be working on the first post of “Carnival of the Elitist Bastards,” hosted by Dana Hunter of En Tequila Es Verdad.

And thanks to PalMD of Denialism Blog, for a little positive press. Pal, you’re a gentleman and a scholar.

I promise a return to substantive entries tomorrow. Please forgive this brief hiatus.

Whoa! Good news everyone! We’ll be hosting “Carnival of the Liberals,” a blogger’s revue of quality liberal content on the internet, on August 13th, 2008. This date handily falls right between my time as a summer associate and the beginning of my third year of law school. And, hopefully, by that point the site will have more authors too.

So I need to think of a theme for the carnival. Not that it’ll matter for another month or two, but it can’t hurt to start early. I was thinking, “Politics and Science,” since it’s a topic that I think is very important (I certainly write about it a lot), and I know there are a lot of good authors out there on the subject. Alternately, maybe something about the election, since we’ll be less than three months away at that point. Please, your suggestions are welcomed.
