Scatterplot, the new sociology group blog, has some very good posts:

• “Olderwoman” writes a highly insightful post about family and career. A must read.
• The Blue Monster talks about problems with grants.
•  Jeremy addresses insanely bad job search etiquette by departments.

Some other interesting posts from around the blogosphere:

• Dan Drezner on the international community and Iran.
• A debate over the absence of a “cohabitation premium” for gay men. The original paper is here.
• On lame college mottos and invented mottoes that are appropriate, such as Chicago’s informal motto – Where Fun Comes to Die. Read other UoC mottos here.
• Download talks about the Finklestein tenure case from a conference on academic freedom at the University of Chicago. Via Lieter Reports.
