blogographos points to an online poll on favourite Greek divinities ... [as I was doing that one, a Google ad thingie pointed to this Minotaur stuffed toy] ... meanwhile, still at blogographos, Alun has come up with the most politically-influential Greeks ...
The dragon battles continue at Bestiaria ... this time it's the archangel Michael part one and part two ...
Laudator an interesting piece on the God Fart ... there's also an interesting howler that he came across in a book about C.S. Lewis ... and a followup on Sins of the Tongue ...

Ginny Lindzey in the Latin Zone is signing yearbooks and reflecting on why we teach ...
PhDiva DK points to an NPR interview about looting of Italian archaeological sites ...
ABZU points us to an index page thing of Classical Dissertations in Progress (which seems to have been a one-shot thing in 2000) ... there's also an online Encyclopedia of the Hellenic World ...

MK sent this one along (thanks) ... Daily Kos is in the midst of an interesting series on antecedents to Athenian humanism ...
The BBC has a production of Venus in Copper (i.e. a Falco novel) ... available as Listen Again ...
I've seen this one mentioned repeatedly and keep forgetting to mention it ... it's a newish blog called 'Under Odysseus' in which a crewman of Odysseus is blogging what's happening ...
