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…

As the Oil Spreads, So Does the Blame
The people my mom works with wanted to know what I thought of the oil spill. Are there alternatives to: it's a catastrophe? In America, land of nutbags, there are always alternatives. Texas Governor Rick Perry called it an 'act of God' (BP has amassed almost as much power). But really, there is only one position. It's a disaster. The Atlantic ran a really nice summary piece on how the spill…
Weekend Diversion: Building Down (Synopsis)

But one innovative solution may be the wave of the future: building down! Have a listen to Turin Brakes as they go through their remarkable song, Building Wraps Round Me,…
Forget Shooting Stars; How About a Shooting Galaxy!
"Keep up the good work, if only for a while, if only for the twinkling of a tiny galaxy." -Wislawa Szymborska You all know about shooting stars. Seen from Earth, mostly during meteor showers, these aren't stars at all, but are tiny fragments of rock that hit the Earth's atmosphere, and streak across it, leaving a bright fireball as it burns up.
