Program Announcement: I'm Moving
September 1, 2011
I've dropped some hints in the past that my relationship with ScienceBlogs would be...altered. Well, I've decided to leave. Mostly, it had to do with the issue of pseudonymity, although I'm very excited to hang out my own shingle once again. I don't want to rehash the issue of pseudonymity,…
Note to Unions: This Is Not How You Build a Coalition
September 1, 2011
The old saw that 'we hang together or we get hung separately' is a perfect description of how the left has disintegrated into irrelevance. Too often, groups will focus on modest gains for their own narrow constituency, while selling out other allies. Over the long term, each component of the…

Cat Quandary
Photo Copyright: Arizona Game and Fish Department Looking at this photo, I can't help but wonder why a bobcat thought it would be a good idea to climb to the top of a saguaro cactus...a really tall saguaro cactus. I had to find out. I did what anyone would do and searched Google. I found this video complete with photos describing how the bobcat was being chased by a mountain lion. So it climbed…
336-343/366: Panoramas and Sillyheads
I've got a big backlog of photo-a-day pictures, but finding time to edit and post them is a major challenge. I've got nearly all the editing done, now, so I'll start putting blocks of stuff up when I have time (generally very early in the morning, as I'm awake before everyone else in Chateau Steelypips). Since we've long since stopped even pretending that these are date-specific, I'll just…
Why I Am Not A Humanist*
           Looking nonhumans in the eye.      Image: Elephant Man by Chris GallucciIn 1927 Bertrand Russell wrote his now famous essay "Why I Am Not A Christian" and outlined the general reasons for why he rejected such an ideology.
