- Chris at Creek Running North tells us a story about a River of fire, river of stone
- John Hawks at his Anthropology Weblog wonders Did Gen Suwa just save paleoanthropology? (the answer is "maybe")
- Jennifer Ouellette at Cocktail Party Physics discourses on Primordial Ooze - non-Newtonian liquids, quicksand, and dry ice.
- John Hawks (yes, again) talks about The Miracle of Compound Interest and why math-avoiding biologists can't get away with it forever.
- Pamela Gay at Star Stryder tells us that Einstein Was Not Wrong - and what she means (and doesn't mean) when she says it.

Only when a republic's life is in danger should a man uphold his government when it is in the wrong. There is no other time. The church says Earth is flat; but I have seen its shadow on the moon, and I have more confidence in a shadow than the church. If we can't find Heaven, there are always bluejays.
