Dear friends of NCSE, Idaho's governor vetoes the Bible-as-reference bill. Sad news of the death of Harold Morowitz. A reminder that seats are still available on NCSE's next excursion to the Grand Canyon. And a denunciation of Alabama's evolution disclaimer.

Dear friends of NCSE, Disappointing news from Alabama. Everything you ever wanted to know about the NCSE/Penn State climate change education survey. Plus good news from the state legislatures of Louisiana, West Virginia, and Florida.

Dear friends of NCSE, A new issue of Reports of the NCSE in its new format is now available on-line. Idaho's Bible-as-science-reference bill may become not as problematic. West Virginia's science standards are under attack by the legislature, in part owing to their treatment of climate change. And two -- or is it three? -- antiscience bills are dead in Oklahoma.

Dear friends of NCSE, Coverage of "Climate Confusion Among U.S. Teachers." A bill in Idaho that would permit the use of the Bible in studying science. And progress for Arizona's Darwin Day bill, the death of Antonin Scalia, and a Facebook milestone for NCSE.
