Welcome to the December 27, 2007 edition of carnival of the vanities.
Madeleine Begun Kane presents I Won’t Graciously Submit To Mike Huckabee posted at Mad Kane’s Political Madness.
Daniel Kretschmer presents Learning Art posted at vince’s ear, saying, “Learning about art doesn’t have to be a chore as this post explains.”
Alvaro Fernandez presents Brain Training: No Magic Bullet, Yet Useful Tool. Interview with Elizabeth Zelinski posted at SharpBrains, saying, “Here goes an interview with a leading scientist on lifelong learning and cognitive training. Happy Holidays!”
Carole G. McKay presents Life and Death posted at McKay Today, saying, “”Living” without the death penalty and how it serves the best of humankind.”
GrrlScientist presents ScienceDebate2008: In Search of a Science-literate Leader posted at Living the Scientific Life, saying, “While our elected officials have been distracted with petty bickering over non-issues such as the Terri Schiavo fiasco and the teaching of evolution in public schools, they have been waving their hands helplessly in the face of Hurricane Katrina, and the suffering of many Americans has been needlessly prolonged and ignored. In short, we need a science-literate president.”
Aparna presents 11 things you can do with olive oil posted at Beauty and Personality Grooming, saying, “Besides lemon, milk, sugar, aloe, turmeric, sandalwood and honey, olive oil is another household item that has multifarious uses as a beauty aid. It is a mild, non-irritant, antibacterial oil that is rich in antioxidants; hence is ideal for the skin. Here are a few things that you could do with olive oil.”
GrrlScientist presents ScienceDebate2008: What Is It? posted at Living the Scientific Life, saying, “I have spoken with quite a few people from CraigsList and other places regarding the logistics and goals for ScienceDebate2008, and have found that there are plenty of misperceptions as to what scientists wish to accomplish. In short; ScienceDebate2008 is not a “science pop-quiz” that demands that the presidential candidates regurgitate a bunch of scientific theories and formulae on television.”
GrrlScientist presents Living the Scientific Life (Scientist, Interrupted): ScienceDebate2008: The Future of Science in America posted at Living the Scientific Life, saying, “There are plenty of debates for presidential candidates on all sorts of topics, but have you noticed that none of these debates include any discussion about science and research? [...] In fact, it would be great if there could be a presidential debate that specifically focuses on clarifying each candidate’s position regarding research in science, technology and the environment so they cannot dodge these subjects and so these important issues are emphasized in the public’s consciousness.”
Mark A. Rayner presents Excruciating Album Cover Art ? Tijuana Picnic posted at The Skwib.
Fred Black presents Follow Your Heart posted at Fred Black: Internet Business Blog..
chris presents DropKick MonKey » Blog Archive » Mercator: Never Trust A Man posted at DropKick MonKey, saying, “Excellant undercover commercial that says a alot about men.”

Helene Zemel presents The Shame of the American Health Care System posted at Health Plans Plus, saying, “Over 47,000,000 Americans have no health insurancemore than 15 % of the population. With the exception of the United States, most developed countries have a National health system which benefits all of its citizens both rich and poor. Although the United States is a first world country, for the more than 47 million uninsured, medical care is third world.”
Kilroy_60 presents A Blog Carnival That’s Out Of This World! My Blogiversary Bash!! posted at Fear And Loathing – The Gonzo Papers, saying, “I think the text that makes up this carnival works rather well…and makes it adventure to see those who joined in my Blogiversary Bash!!”
