Order Valium Online Some stuff that caught my eye this week: Bryan Walsh at Time attempts to sort through the frack-off at Cornell. Biotechnology to the rescue? Shhh, don’t tell the anti-GMO crowd about this one. Steve Silberman tweets: Between them, Gingrich and Limbaugh have had 7 marriages. And they want to abolish my one. Did you know Israel…Continue Reading…

The Rift Between Scientists and Journalists

https://drreddyfamilydoctors.com/womans-health/ Yesterday, Nature’s online editor set off a mini squall with this Guardian column, titled “Nine ways scientists demonstrate they don’t understand journalism.” The response from the science blogosphere was pretty negative. For some reason, this surprised me–well the darts thrown at the piece by many writers did, anyway. I kinda got into it a bit…Continue Reading…

State of the Blog

https://www.munshinegroup.com/home-nonprofit/clients/ I know everyone has been waiting on pins and needles about the future of this blog. The suspense has been killing me, too. Well, I have good news and bad news. Let’s start with the latter. Your combined generosity has enabled me to buy some new socks, take my kids to a matinee movie and…Continue Reading…

Free Journalism Has its Costs

Order Soma Online When I was in high school I had a bunch of money-earning jobs. I raked yards in the Fall (leaf bags galore!), shoveled driveways in the winter, and delivered newspapers year-round. (I really hated those thick Sunday papers back then.) This meant I had cash on hand to feed my record-buying habit and enough to…Continue Reading…

Corrections Not Necessary in Botched Atlantic Story?

Order Ultram Online If the writer of a magazine story admits to significant errors in his piece, shouldn’t the publication then acknowledge this with an editor’s note, providing corrections? I ask because there are new developments to the story about that botched article in The Atlantic, which, as I wrote here, used this study as a springboard to raise concerns…Continue Reading…

Paying Attention to the History of Climate Change

One of the unfortunate consequences of the hyperbolic, circumscribed climate change discourse (It’s all hoax, No it’s not!) is that we don’t pay enough attention to the climate change that did happen in prehistory, specifically the mega-droughts that combined with other factors to cripple ancient empires. These are complicated stories that are still being puzzled…Continue Reading…

The Very Real Danger of Unvetted Journalism

Yesterday, I called attention to a deeply flawed article published online by The Atlantic, that used this study as a springboard to raise concerns about GMO foods. Biotechnology, like climate science, is prone to distortion by those who feel passionate about it. The debate on GMO’s and climate change is most heated and misrepresented on…Continue Reading…

The Atlantic Serves Up Alarmism & Jumbled Science

I’m making a decree: Food columnists should no longer be writing about anything other than recipes and restaurants. When they stray from their area of expertise, what results is too often ugly and harmful to the public interest. For example, I’ve previously pointed out where some food writers go badly off the tracks. The latest…Continue Reading…

The Huffington Post's Frankenjournalism

https://advogadoemresende.com/audiencia-publica-maes-em-carcere/ Last week, the Huffington Post unveiled a new science section. Science bloggers and science writers aren’t sure what to make of it. Some, such as Mark Hoofnagle, are cautiously hopeful. As he notes, the Huffington Post has up to now been notorious (at least in the science blogosphere) as a “clearinghouse” for “liberal crankery,” featuring things…Continue Reading…

Gimme Some Lovin'

Purchase Xanax Online I started Collide-a-Scape in January 2009, when I was a Fellow at the University of Colorado’s Center for Environmental Journalism ( CEJ). Initially, I envisioned blogging about the Southwest. It was to be a continuation of the energy, ecology, and archaeology stories I had already been writing during the 2000s, for various publications and for…Continue Reading…
