Dear Friends of NCSE,

dead; a seminary professor resigns over his acceptance of evolution;
and a discussion of survey results involving evolution is removed from
a National Science Board report.

Dear Friends of NCSE,

The New York Times reports on the increasing linkage of evolution
denial and global warming denial, and NCSE announces a new award for
the most noisome creationist of the year. Plus Don McLeroy loses at
the Texas polls, NCSE's Joshua Rosenau and Steven Newton comment on a
South Dakota bill that uses antievolutionist rhetoric in the service
of global warming denial, and the latest from Israel's fracas over
evolution.

Dear Friends of NCSE,

Dear Friends of NCSE,

A new antievolution bill in Kentucky. A Facebook milestone for NCSE; a
new batch of photographs from the Scopes trial; and a chance for
biology faculty to learn how to understand and apply evidence-based
research in biology education. And Darwin Day is here at last!

(by NCSE Deputy Director Glenn Branch)

Dear Friends of NCSE,

The first antievolution bill of 2010 is dead. Meanwhile, chances

order for Carl Zimmer, and Darwin Day continues to approach.
