Three new articles from Adonis Mirror:
*The Changing of the Guard: Men Flock to the Frivolous in Academia
When there is a crisis in masculinity, men look back towards the old days—more imagined than real—for inspiration: Latin sounding words are one way to pad legitimacy and authority into any endeavor, so the number of “-ologies” in academia is rapidly increasing, covering any area of male-interest. Women, however, have to hit the books the old fashioned way.

*I Made Some Science: Massaging the Medium
Gender and blogs, the subject might be old hat but men are still able to take advantage of the genre, even when it comes to completing their Ph. D. projects: as is the case for the MIT Weblog Survey that was able to draw upon women’s exclusion from the “blogosphere” and other patriarchal legacies to maximize it’s own importance by garnering female participation… even though the data it is collecting isn’t necessarily the answers for which it is even searching.

*Wrath of God, Wrath of Men
In the wake of hurricane Katrina, liberal men acted as if they’d never take advantage of a natural disaster for their own political goals, or puerile amusement for that matter: having short memories, many forgot that they did exactly that a year ago when three storms struck Florida.
