The Corpus Callosum
The Corpus Callosum is an occasional journal of armchair musings, by a suburban, reality-based, slightly-left-of-center guy, who reserves the right to be highly irregular at times. Topics: social commentary, neuroscience, politics, science news. Mission: to develop connections between hard science and social science, using linear thinking and intuition; and to explore the relative merits of spontaneity vs. strategy.

What is photo no.1 doing in this list?

Good question. It is cute, but certainly not great.

So, what's wrong with photo #1? I think it puts all the others in perspective.
