First, I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season." Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will.

Cephalart

Category: Cephalopods
Posted on: November 24, 2006 1:24 PM, by PZ Myers

Here's the weekly collection of submitted art (and other) featuring cephalopods.

This is the work of Evan Harris, with his strangely dissipated-looking sailor playing a cephalochord.

Lego's Aqua Raiders set features a giant squid with too few arms: it looks more like a spider to me.

Look! Pearl Jam played in Australia!

This is part of a whole collection of octopus jewelry. Anybody who wants to buy me the complete set for Cephalopodmas, contact me and I'll send a shipping address.

The one piece is $1350. Cheap!

That last one appears to have only 7 tentacles though.

Thanks, Icequeen-- I think my wife would really like those sea turtles.

But did the nice Swiss lady have to call me a Schmuck right at the top of the page?

*laugh* Schmuck is a great German word. I remember wandering around in Frankfurt and seeing a store seemingly very proud of its Schmuck.

Actually, looking around on Flickr, it was this place. I gather their name is Christ and they sell Schmuck (adornment) and Uhren (clocks), but the image of "Schmuck Christ" is giggleable.
