I've never figured out how so much stuff quickly accumulates in my mailbox ... anyhoo, here's a pile of stuff needing to be mentioned:
In case you didn't know, Dorothy King is back blogging at PhDiva ...
The CAC has (finally) brought its website into this millennium ... I'm still trying to figure out what's happened to the Mouseion website, though ...
In case you haven't been following it, the conversation at eLatin eGreek eLearn about the cancellation of the AP Latin Literature exam has generated 39 pages (as of this second) of comments ... they've also generated a letter to the AP powers-that-are ... Andrew Reinhard joins the call (one which I made at the outset of this event) for the APA/ACL to possibly do something to replace it ...
The discussion/commentary on electronic monographs at the CSA Newsletter site has also continued to grow ...
Not sure why, but at PhysOrg there was a brief item on how the Romans handled integration ...
Similarly, the Cud was assessing Pericles as a statesman ... it does not seem to be connected to Boris Johnson's allusions to same in the London mayoralty race ...
I'm also not sure why the Birmingham Post was explaining Enoch Powell's 'rivers of blood' thing ... [UPDATE: Barry Baldwin writes in (thanks!) to remind me/us that it's the 40th anniversary of Powell's statement]
MINA had a good one-webpage overview of Alexander's life ...
Wired explains what we've learned from the Trojan War ...
I'd also like to toot my own horn a bit and point out that we started volume 11 of our Explorator newsletter with today's issue ... we're now in our 12th year of putting out the best freebie (I'm biased, of course) on the Internet ... there should be a link over in my blogroll on the side to today's issue and the latest Ancient World on Television listings (which have been around for even longer!) ...
By the way ... can anyone tell me what's up with Ephemeris? Their feed appears to have been hijacked or something ...
