Links (most recent first) that caught my eye, but did not warrant full-blown blog entries …. <\/p>\n
    \n
  1. Finally, a vote for Lael Brainard<\/a> – “A mature, functioning democracy simply can’t operate this way and expect to thrive.” Maybe that’s the idea.<\/li>\n
  2. Jukebox John keeps changing his tune<\/a> – A sad, downward spiral of ideological integrity for a man whom many people used to admire.<\/li>\n
  3. Sputtering Start to Religious Right’s Rebranding<\/a> – It sounds like the meeting could have used some Prozac in the drinking water. Sure, the numbers were small, but the rhetoric was zany.<\/li>\n
  4. Traditional Values Coalition Tells Senators To Block Judicial Nominee Because She\u2019s A \u2018Radical Lesbian\u2019<\/a> – I guess she’s a “radical lesbian” because she’s (a) not closeted and (b) thinks gays shouldn’t be discriminated against. I guess that makes the TVC “radical conservatives” and Jim DeMint a “radical Republican.”<\/li>\n
  5. How Medical Technetium Was Sabotaged By a Volcano [On Becoming a Domestic and Laboratory Goddess]<\/a> – Sometimes we have no idea how much things are interconnected — and how fragile some of those connections are.<\/li>\n
  6. The BeetleCam Project<\/a> – Damned clever!<\/li>\n
  7. That would indeed freak me out. (via lissomlights)<\/a> – Yikes.<\/li>\n
  8. Drink coffee to persuade people – Health – ibnlive<\/a> – Interesting — a good dose of caffeine helps someone concentrate on your message and be more easily persuaded … but too much serves as a jittery distraction.<\/li>\n
  9. Iceland’s volcano<\/a> – Very cool time-lapse graphic of the ash cloud.<\/li>\n
  10. Do liberals read only liberal blogs?<\/a> – while most of the blogs I read are liberal\/progressive, there are some more centrist ones on my regular read list, and I make a point (esp. when I blog on a point) to drill down through to source material or alternative viewpoints. Granted, the latter is often to mock, but I do try to read more than just the snippets that others have quoted.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
