To celebrate the anniversary I have started reading Evolutionary Analysis. Expect a report in the fullness of time.

- French Poilu 1914–18. I Sumner, ill G Rava. Rather too short to cover the entire war.
- First World War and Army of Occupation War Diary France Belgium and Germany: 24 DIVISION 72 Infantry Brigade, Brigade Trench Mortar Battery February 1918–31 January 1919 (First World War, War Diary, WO95/2215/3) Exactly what it says on the tin, though the label is quite large.
- Making Sense of Haptics: Fundamentals of Perception and Implications for Device Design F E van Beek. This is the work of a recently graduated PhD student. Good work, too.
- Sonification Design: From Data to Intelligible Soundfields D Worrall. I thought this was the work of an eager and recently graduated PhD, not a well-established professor.
- Physics for Cats T Gauld. About “science”, but nothing specific.
- Fighters in Service—Attack and Training Aircraft since 1960 K Munson. Right at the start when current air forces were equipped.
Places I keep track of
- IPMS Stockholm One of the best plastic modelling forums you'll find.
- Hyperscale More modelling stuff.
- Occasional kvetch Thnidu is a linguist and an old friend.
- Another CyborgManifesto Small and large, always with alarming skill.
- Aardvarchaeology What kind of archaeologist doesn't have a whip or even a fedora?
- Arkland Archaeology and random bits.
- Pharyngula Biology, politics and atheism. And eight-legged animals.
- Something positive Magical realism in a very cynical way.
- Chicken Wings It's about birds…that fly…
- xkcd Don't miss the mouse-overs.

Jag har en artikel från Illustrerad Vetenskap där det står: "I sin dagbok antecknade Darwin sina tankar, bland annat betydelsen av alla galapagosfinkar".
Där har du en riktig vetenskapsman!
Men vad är betydelsen av Galapagosfinkar?
Det vet bara Darwin, i djupet av sitt hjärtas hemligheter.
The Darwin Awards are aperiodically awarded by popular acclaim to those who improve the human gene pool by removing themselves from it in ways that demonstrate that their removal constitutes an improvement.
I have a song about them here.
