  The Ethicurean: Chew the right thing. — Authority: 412
  When you think about eating endangered species, you might imagine going to Chinatown to some secret restaurant — or to the ones operated by shadowy mobsters like in the 1990 comedy " The Freshman ," with Matthew Broderick and Marlon Brando. But if you order tuna in your neighborhood sushi restaurant, you too could ...

• Stopping and Pausing (But Still They Blog, 11)

  
  Walt at Random — Authority: 470
  Like Chapter 10, Chapter 11 is entirely new to But Still They Blog . Why does a blogger pause (which I’ll define as not blogging for at least four months) or stop altogether? I’m certain the most common reason is premature blogging, that is, starting a blog before you really know whether you have much to say. ...

• Cites & Insights: Accepting Direct Support

  
  Walt at Random — Authority: 470
  Since we’re now about a week (or two) away from the first issue of Cites & Insights Volume 10, and since there have been no hints of sponsorship from any quarter, I’m doing something else–something I did in 2004 for a few months, before YBP began sponsoring C&I. I’m inviting and accepting ...

  Walt at Random — Authority: 470
  I asked a question about typography for Cites & Insights on December 4–and got four answers. Based in part on those answers, I revised the question on December 6 –and got some more responses, of which I count two new actual answers. Which isn’t bad, really–but I’ve also looked at Urchin stats ...

• Blocking protection and getting paid to do it: EU and bluefin

  
  Greenpeace Canada weblogs — Authority: 122
  I wonder how EU citizens feel about financially contributing to the extinction of bluefin tuna…..I’m guessing most woudn’t be too impressed, but I’m also guessing very few have any idea.

• The long and short of blogs (But Still They Blog, 4)

  
  Walt at Random — Authority: 470
  Last year, it seemed reasonable to suppose that, on the whole, liblogs would have fewer posts but longer posts, as Twitter, FriendFeed, Facebook and others replaced many of the uses for very short posts. If anything, that’s even more true in 2009, even as a number of bloggers simply stopped blogging. One new liblog ...

  Walt at Random — Authority: 470
  It’s the interregnum between volumes of Cites & Insights , and also the end of current sponsorship. That’s a natural time to play with the layout of the publication (postponing, for now, more substantive issues such as the future of the publication). So I’m interrupting the series of introductory posts ...

• Nutrathin Review: How good is this product anyway?

  
  Hoodia Diet Pills Reviews — Authority: 103
  Nutrathin is a product that claims to have 100% Pure hoodia gordonii in it. If this is true then it would be worth trying out. Of course, you need to verify this information and at this time, I have not found verification of their certification to sell hoodia gordonii. However, this does not mean it is not a ...
