What does an atheist firing squad look like?
Perhaps not what you'd think.
This is not about appeasement. It is about not being a racist slob.

Extended Laying Interval of Ultimate Eggs of the Eastern Bluebird
Category:
The question is: how does a bird "know" when to stop laying? When is enough enough? When is the clutch (all of the eggs laid in one breeding attempt) complete? Most of ecological literature is focused on energetics: are birds getting hungry, have they depleted some important source of energy, etc.But the circadian field looks for internal mechanisms.
This paper is by Bora! (and co-authors)

A small church has collapsed in northeast D.C.
Category:
Officials say no one was inside the Joshua Temple Firstborn Church on Sheriff Road this afternoon when a tree fell onto the roof of the church and the weight of the tree and snow made the roof collapse. source
God is punishing these people for a reason. We just need to figure out why by reference to scripture and historical analysis. Like this.

Teabaggers: "Tell congress to end Snobama! "
Category:
Michel Bachmann has organized a teabagging protest in Washington to bring right wing voters from across the nation directly into armed and ready, whites of the eye contact with members of Congress to demand that they pass legislation to end the current Snobama that is paralyzing politics and traffic in Washington D.C.
Unfortunately, all 123 Snobama protesting teabaggers got stuck in the snow crossing the mountains in Virginia on their way to Washington so the protest was canceled.
