Aydin Örstan at Snail’s Tales has another cracking post with Flight of the carpenter bee – Part 2. It’s hard to know what to say with that kind of photography. Egad! just about sums it up.

Athena has an archaeologically sound review of Ice Age 2. Yes, archaeologists genuinely are like that.

I thought I was scooped when I saw a Savage Minds post about Technology in the Classroom: PowerPoint Alternatives. Lots of thoughtful comments in the post too. Fortunately my forthcoming paper, if it forthcomes will be slightly different take on PowerPoint. In brief my conclusion is that PowerPoint doesn’t automatically create bad presentations, but it makes creating bad presentations so much easier.

I wish a few of my friends knew a bit more about chiropracty. Anne’s Anti-Quackery & Science Blog might be a good place to point them.

Antropologi.info has an interesting post: Conference blogging: “Quit using the word ‘culture’ wherever possible”. I think I’d be struck dumb, but it is a good point.
