    Deliver The Net Game | Nothing But Nets Campaign

    Today is World Malaria Day, and UNF sent me a link to another computer game you can play to 'help Africa.' But this one is backed by the UN Foundation instead of MTV and its powered by some more effective donors. At the end of the game, enter your email address and Vestergaard Frandsen, a manufacturer of mosquito nets, will donate a net on your behalf.

    Oh man, it was crazy! Probably nothing to West Coasters, but it felt pretty cool.

    Quoted: The magnitude 5.2 quake hit just before 1am today and was centred near Market Rasen, Lincolnshire. Its effects were felt as far away as Wales, Scotland and London.

    Three of my greatest loves: geology, water, and history.

    Quoted: Some are challenging earlier ideas about how water naturally flows because the streams studied then were not “natural archetypes” but rather the artifacts of 18th and 19th century dam-building and deforestation.

    Quoted: 'Elizabeth: The Golden Age' tells the thrilling tale of an era - the story of one woman's crusade to control love, crush enemies and secure her position as a beloved icon of the western world. As Elizabeth's cousin Mary Stuart conspires with Philip of Spain to topple the throne, Sir Francis Walsingham, Elizabeth's trusty advisor works tirelessly to protect her from the many plots and conspiracies against her. Preparing to go to war to defend her empire, Elizabeth struggles to balance royal duties with an unexpected vulnerability in her attraction to Raleigh.

    Men again? | Gristmill: The environmental news blog | Grist

    I didn't actually read the study, and I'm sure it should be taken with a grain of salt, but I really like that the first commenter uses the oppression of women as his defense of men's environmental habits. Ecofeminism isn't complete bunk, I see. Good stuff.

    Quoted: Lord knows we men are to blame for most things -- but global warming?

    Shake, Rattle and Roll - New York Times

    I think I like Maureen Dowd most because of how much fun she seems to have. Sometimes I think she's just projecting her own little plots and schemes onto these poor politicians, but truly, I wish I could spend my days observing famous people and then writing weird little ethnographies about them. And I wish bloggers wrote as well as she does; it would make the internet so much more enjoyable.

    Quoted: She turned her body away, refused to meet his eyes and froze him out. Again. And he looked taken aback. Again.

    Chimes: Minds in the taking: Faith and reason at Calvin

    Slagers reeking havoc again. We aren't related to this guy are we? It generated almost a full page of letters this week.

    Quoted: It should come as no surprise that Calvin College finds itself sitting on a fence.
