A Connecticut Yankee Goes to Washington: Senator George P. McLean, Birdman of the Senate

10,000 Birds

A great-great nephew of Senator McLean, Greeley spent three years researching and writing this book. Greeley has a historian’s instincts, perhaps stemming from his training as an archivist (though he ended up, he says vaguely, in business and market research). I think birders will enjoy reading this political history of the MBTA.

Scientist Advocacy Group Oppose Some Animal Testing

Critter News

I found a link to them on ANIMAL's blog (ANIMAL is a Portuguese animal rights group.) They do support some animal-based studies (which sucks); HOWEVER, they acknowledge that much animal research is useless. Remember animal research doesn't just create reports, it creates CAREERS as well.) Tags: animal research.
