User:Woozle

This is Woozle's "internal" page, for making notes on things; you are welcome to poke around in this area all you like, but most of it probably won't mean much to you.

Woozle's "external" page for general public consumption is here.

Practical Stuff

• Woozle's Projects: outdated page
  • audio projects, with lots of free downloads
• Woozle category: writings, pictures, stuff, things.
• Résumé: I don't think I believe in résumés anymore, but my family gives me a hard time whenever I try to reinvent the idea so as to be less painful.
  • Woozle's Official Glossy Brochure: I prefer this title, but...
  • Résumé - Nick Staddon is the same thing with a more standard title
  • actual page for editing

Somewhat Esoteric Stuff

• The Anna Page for family consumption (Category:Anna Nikola has all the pictures)
• Category:Woozle has images and links to other Woozle-related stuff
• Apparently David Oates played one of my comedy bits on his WUGA radio show, Great Apes. Who knew.

Somewhat Outdated Stuff

• What Woozle Is Doing Right Now <-- answer to popular question
• To Do List
• /notes: place to ditch stuff I don't want to delete

Bookmarks

Most of my bookmarks get filed in HTYP or Issuepedia, but sometimes I just don't have time to file everything and I dump them here so I can close tabs in Firefox.

• http://utahfm.org/ - from Tene
• http://www.afajournal.org/2006/august/0806colleges.html - attending college cures fundamentalism
• http://www.palaeos.com/ - a resource
• http://byneddiejingo.blogspot.com/2006/08/achieving-representation.html - is PowerPoint responsible for our terrible Iraq lack-of-plan?
• http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2006/08/wikiconspiracy.php - Wikiconspiracy: a creationist group works to subvert Wikipedia. Comments include the predictable "you can't trust wiki" (as if "wiki" and "Wikipedia" were somehow equivalent).

2008-05-11

• Fred Rogers Congressional testimony, 1969
• 2008-03-19 happy anniversary: some of the human cost of the Iraq War, in case anyone has forgotten
• Libertyville Abortion Demonstration: demonstrators are asked what the penalty should be, if abortions are made illegal, for a woman who has an (illegal) abortion; for the most part, they haven't thought about it and don't believe she should be punished. (Nobody mentions punishing the doctor, which is presumably how the law would be enforced.) The poster of the aborted fetus seen briefly at the beginning seems very similar or perhaps identical to the one on the Fayetteville Rd. "Abortion Truck".
  • Commentary: withered debutante (Muffy Bolding)
• Look out, it’s evil! - Faith-based Medicine: not sure if the post itself is useful, but it has links to several things which ought to be filed somewhere.
• why the wingnuts hate plan B: apparently Plan B isn't an issue anymore, but this is still some useful history on how the Right opposed a contraceptive measure which could not possibly be construed as abortion.
• Bush Administration Cut Funding For Explosives Detection: this probably should go in "Bush hypocrisy"
• creationist genetics: useful stuff for ScriptureWiki
• Joe Carter strings together some noise: one particular creationist's anti-evolution claims, and rebuttals
• Evangelicals urge museum to hide man's ancestors: anti-science, anti-Darwinism, Kenya, religious right
• video debunking the Discovery Institute's list of "scientists" who reject evolution
• Even sleazier than the DI: global warming denial dishonesty (should have a page specifically for lies told in the service of anti-Darwinism and global warming denial)

2008-05-01

• Judge Deals Blow to RIAA in Music Piracy Case: putting files in a "shared" folder is not illegal. (What about putting them on the web, or in an anonymous ftp folder?) (for Issuepedia)
• U.S. Marines Invade Manhattan, New York!: "Iraq Veterans Against the War" demonstrate US military brutality (for Issuepedia)
• Iraq: U.S. has no claim to oil boom '"America has hardly even begun to repay its debt to Iraq," Baghdad official says. "This is an immoral request because we didn't ask them to come to Iraq, and before they came in 2003 we didn't have all these needs."' Iraq does not want the US to stay. (Has anybody except neocons claimed otherwise? This is not a rhetorical question.) (for Issuepedia)
• Wolfowitz: Iraq occupation ended in 2004: we're no longer occupying Iraq, we're just kind of there. (Our mission to spread American sovereigntydemocracy is so just and holy that God (from his office in the White House) has granted us special dispensiation to be militarily present without "occupying", perhaps.)
• White House admits fault on 'Mission Accomplished' banner: well, not really: ""President Bush is well aware that the banner should have been much more specific and said `mission accomplished' for these sailors who are on this ship on their mission," White House press secretary Dana Perino said Wednesday. "And we have certainly paid a price for not being more specific on that banner. And I recognize that the media is going to play this up again tomorrow, as they do every single year."" Do they really?
• Mark Anderson speaks on the current economic crisis (for Issuepedia)
