Great quote from Randy Cohen (NYTimes’ The Ethicist)
The roster of historic enormities justified by religious doctrine is too long and too familiar to bear repeating. These things must be judged on their impact. (O.K., just a few: the Crusades, the Inquisition, colonialism, slavery, Stryper.)
Read the whole post, and his original column, for context.

StevenF’s “NaNoDrawMo” project
~stevenf 10/22/09 7:07 AM
Neven and Gus both expressed interest in “NaNoDrawMo” (see previous blog post) and three people is all you need for a conspiracy, right?
Loosely defined goals are: 50 individual works/drawings produced between Nov 1 and Nov 30. Extra points if they work together to tell a story or otherwise share an overall theme (people you know, people you saw on the bus, etc).
There is no quality requirement — really the main idea is to force a certain amount of practice by setting a high quantity goal. Also, it’s not a competition (except with yourself). Any medium is OK, as long as you can get it onto Flickr somehow.
We are going to use the Flickr tag “nanodrawmo” if you want to follow us or join in. My Flickr gets reposted here, so you don’t have to do anything special to follow me if you are already subscribed to my blog.
Mmmmm. Breakfast.

Just ordered the Panasonic GF1
It will be my first interchangeable-lens camera. Looking forward to near-SLR quality in a compact package. Good review at dpreview.com
