Blog Hiatus Until March 1st

As you all know, Steve and I are merging blogs into the aptly-named 'Of Two Minds' blog. We're going live on March 1st, and since we have a lot of work to do to get it ready and pretty (new banners in the works!) I decided to go on blogging hiatus here a few weeks early. Plus, I'm heading to Phoenix next week to present research at the Association for Research in Otolaryngology meeting and will be there a week. So, the timing seemed right. Don't worry, I'll be posting a reminder as March 1st gets close so you can all update your links and join me at the new digs with Steve.

Until then, check out my friend's new music blog here. I've been encouraging him for months to start a blog because, well, I trust his music taste more than most music critics. I'm always on the look out for new bands and interesting music, and he consistently has wowed me with his mix CDs and recommendations. Check it out!

In but a few hours I'll be on a jet plane to Amsterdam, to give an academic talk at a meeting. Today has been a mix of stress (blogging scholarship, practice talks) and exhilaration (my friend's thesis defense is today and I'm gonna be in Europe soon!) exacerbated by more caffeine and less sleep…
Shelley Batts and I are of the same "generation", meaning that we became SciBlings on the same day. You need to hurry up and check out her blog Retrospectacle before she moves to a new blog in a few days. At the Science Blogging Conference last month Shelley moderated the Student blogging panel--…
As previously established, I don't much care for Christmas music. Last year, I compiled the few holiday songs I owned, and came up with a whopping ten, and that required stretching things a bit. Based on comment thread recommendations, I expanded that to 22 songs (mostly by adding Sufjan Stevens…
Regular readers of this blog may remember that I'm a bit of a music critic wannabe. This pretension began very early in the history of this blog and persisted every year. Usually, sometime around the end of the year or the first day of the new year, I'll compile my list of my favorite CDs of the…

You could have timed that trip to Phoenix better - Spring Training gets into full swing in a couple more weeks!

Enjoy, thanks for the link, we'll see you on the other side.

You support an organization which excluded Ron Paul from speaking. This in itself is against science at it's core.
Science is the search for truth. All science must include all circumstance. No ommission or fact or possible fact.
If by your own action you create an outcome then your science is flawed.
You know this!!!!!
Let Dr. and I repeat DOCTOR Ron Paul speak. You may not agree with him, but science seeks truth and required all the facts to make a decision. Otherwise you live in belief and religion and not fact.
Look to your own for the problem and see your error of observation. You call yourself a scientist? hmmmmmmmmm

I hope you find your funding for college. I hope you also understand that I don't want to be the one who pays for it. I could not afford college for myself and did manage to put three kids through. Ponder that in your quixotic quest. I'm self taught and read. Completely free of State support in my life. Give it a try. Be a true citizen and just work hard.
