Here is the interview Pete did with a prominent photo blogger, which was also posted on PopPhoto.com.
He also started working with abcnews.com. Here is the first piece he did (an article and 2 slideshows!), and here is the slideshow that just got published.
Another blogger posted his bathroom graffiti pics, which I find really interesting.
And last but not least, here is his new website that he just got up.

Brilliant
I'm posting this only because I'm can't pay the current bid, and I doubt anyone else I know will pay it either. However, this man is a genius.
[Edit] So, those who know me will attest to my craziness on this topic. However, I wanted to point out what I think is the scary sentence: "...many of those who tested positive experienced only mild symptoms and were not hospitalized." /end{crazy}

Another Awesome Comic
I'm not even going to try and explain how I got from Smed's post to this, but boy am I glad I did. Apparently this actually runs in some papers. For the first time ever, Austin has disappointed me. Now I know how you Baltimoreans feel.

Science (And Science Writing) Rocks
I wasn't going to post today because I also have a crazy amount of things to do. But sometimes science makes it too hard--or just sensitive. I'm not going to tell you what this story is about--it's on NBC.com, so it's safe for work, though--I'm just going to leave you with this: "It's like having a mini-heartbeat in my crotch," she explains, a sensation that arouses her even during yoga and spinning classes, or when she drives along bumpy roads. During sex, Staltare says, she has volcanic, multiple orgasms "like huge waves that keep lifting me higher and higher." I could quote the entire article. The writing is just that good. Go here now. (FYI: Only the first page is awesome and funny. The second is mostly sad and a little frightening, and the third is part funny and part business.)

The Law
Being a lawyer isn't always boring. Here is a tidbit from a case tried in Georgia (of course), sent to me by my friend David.
On April 5, 1996, this Court ordered Plaintiff to show cause why this
Court should not impose Rule 11 sanctions upon him for filing a motion
for improper purposes. The motion which Plaintiff filed was entitled "
Motion to Kiss My Ass" (Doc. 107) in which he moved " all Americans
at large and one corrupt Judge Smith [to] kiss my got [sic] damn ass
sorry mother fucker you." This Court gave Plaintiff until April 25,
1996, to respond and specifically warned: " Failure to comply with
this Order will result in dismissal of this case." Plaintiff has
appealed the show-cause order to the United States Court of Appeals
for the Eleventh Circuit. Washington v. Alaimo, 934 F.Supp 1395 (S.D.Ga. 1996).
