Interesting Newbies...
Some new-ish blogs that have popped up that deserve a perusal or two...
1) The Morningside Post comes from Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs (SIPA) program. It touches upon a variety of foreign policy issues. By the way, SIPA is one of the CU student groups sponsoring a talk Monday with Michael Gordon, co-author of COBRA II, the newly released account of the run-up to the Iraq War. Yours truly will be moderating.
2) J. Mark English gives up a new sports-related blog at American Legends.
3) I can't remember if I gave a shout-out to Umar Lee yet (and I'm too lazy/tired to go Google myself to find out), but he's a rather smart and opinionated fellow Brooklynite who approaches contemporary issues from an American Muslim perspective. He's been visiting the comments section for sometime and his own provocative site deserves a look-see (though he seems to have dropped its rather provocative title for its current eponymous variation).
4) And then there is Blogger Ale, an odd mish-mash of various contemporary topics -- many well beyond my ken -- that somehow come together under the general categories like beer and politics.
Enjoy the reads!
