Now on ScienceBlogs: Oh, no! School wi-fi is making our kids sick! (2012 edition)
You will notice that it lacks definiteness; that it lacks purpose; that it lacks coherence; that it lacks a subject to talk about; that it is loose and wabbly; that it wanders around; that it loses itself early and does not find itself any more. --Mark Twain
Joshua Rosenau spends his days defending the teaching of evolution at the National Center for Science Education. He is formerly a doctoral candidate at the University of Kansas, in the department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology. When not battling creationists or modeling species ranges, he writes about developments in progressive politics and the sciences.
The opinions expressed here are his own, do not reflect the official position of the NCSE. Indeed, older posts may no longer reflect his own official position.

go to the Wellcome Library's new image bank and find your favorite scientific image.On the old blog, I wrote a post about an X-ray Wilhelm von Röntgen took of his wife's hand and wedding ring. While hunting for that image, I came across this X-ray of a snake eating a mouse by Sir Arthur Schuster, taken in 1896. It is at least as cool, and is much more biological.
Which pictures are your favorites?

Mine is Eadward Muybridge's fantastic photo sequence of the galloping horse, which changed art forever.
