Unexpected travel plans

Well I just found out at 10:00 last night that I'm going to need to leave town for pretty much the month of September so posting is likely to be a little light for the next couple of days while I get ready to go. Meanwhile here's the morning roundup.

Pete at Drug WarRant is continuing with his excellent election voting guides. Be sure to check these out for clues on your state candidates for office. He also reports on the Change the Climate victory in DC where their posters will once again be appearing at Metro stations in the city.

And Baylen at D'Alliance points us to a researcher in Missouri who says "students are more likely to drink, smoke cigarettes and smoke marijuana when they receive drivers' licenses."
