Discovery Institute posts on the year since Dover.
John West notes that a year after Dover, Darwinists seem increasingly disillusioned as well as shrill, the central part of Judge Jones' "brilliant" decision has been found to be riddled with errors and copied nearly verbatim from the ACLU, a research lab has been launched for scientists to pursue intelligent design-inspired scientific research, and states and localities are continuing to adopt public policies to encourage students to study the scientific evidence for and against Darwin's theory.
John Timmer, on the Ars technica Web site, posts on the Cobb County GA textbook sticker case.
Not in the post, but the school board has agreed to never re-apply the sticker in question. The school board is also paying the plaintiffs about $160,000, which is reported to be about 1/3 of the legal costs of plaintiffs. The school did not admit that the sticker was unconstitutional.
Tim Radford comments in Education Guardian (UK) on ID. He claims it isn't science, and it may not even be "Christian".
This comment is an excellent example of obfuscation. He compares the irreducible complexity of the eye (he could have used DNA, or flagellum) to the motion of the planets around the sun. The solar system was once "IC", he claims, and we figured that out, so the implication is that we will eventually figure out all the IC in biology.
The sad thing is...multitudes fall for this line of "thought".
This post is a follow-up on the ID research labs in the Northwest.

Evolution has become a favorite topic of the news media recently, but for some reason, they never seem to get the story straight. The staff at Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture started this Blog to set the record straight and make sure you knew "the rest of the story".
A blogger from New England offers his intelligent reasoning.
We are a group of individuals, coming from diverse backgrounds and not speaking for any organization, who have found common ground around teleological concepts, including intelligent design. We think these concepts have real potential to generate insights about our reality that are being drowned out by political advocacy from both sides. We hope this blog will provide a small voice that helps rectify this situation.

Australian biologist Stephen E. Jones maintains one of the best origins "quote" databases around. He is meticulous about accuracy and working from original sources.
Most guys going through midlife crisis buy a convertible. Austrialian Stephen E. Jones went back to college to get a biology degree and is now a proponent of ID and common ancestry.

Intelligent Design The Future is a multiple contributor weblog whose participants include the nation's leading design scientists and theorists: biochemist Michael Behe, mathematician William Dembski, astronomer Guillermo Gonzalez, philosophers of science Stephen Meyer, and Jay Richards, philosopher of biology Paul Nelson, molecular biologist Jonathan Wells, and science writer Jonathan Witt. Posts will focus primarily on the intellectual issues at stake in the debate over intelligent design, rather than its implications for education or public policy.
