I'm heading out of town for a weekend of business meetings so there'll be nothing new for a while. I probably will have some time to jump on and leave a comment or two tomorrow, however. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

I'm back from DAMOP, having spent a lazy day in Knoxville yesterday, waiting around to go to the airport. That was a much-needed respite from the non-stop conferencing of the previous few days, but I would've preferred to be home, rather than in Knoxville. Air travel continues to suck, particularly…
OMG, has it been a busy few days. I'm just starting the second shift of working today, after an 8-5:30 day of back-to-back meetings, and tomorrow will be all day in a workshop, but I need to share some updatey things, including a belated announcement for the October Scientiae (yay!) below the fold…

Michiganders:

There's an op-ed piece in today's Boston Globe that makes reference to a Michigan Senate race. The relevant portion is:

"In Michigan, one of those rapidly vanishing, traditional kinds of business-oriented Republicans of moderate views -- Bart Baron -- dropped out of the Senate race.

For the moment, the Republican race is missing its best-known potential candidates -- Domino's Pizza CEO David Brandon, Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land, and Jane Abraham, the wife of the guy Stabenow narrowly defeated in 2000."

I have no idea what's going on. Any comment?
