I got on the conference call a few minutes late, but was able to hear the end of DePaul head coach Jerry Wainwright's segment, as well as the appearances by Connecticut's Jim Calhoun, Stan Heath of South Florida, Pittsburgh's Jamie Dixon, Rutgers' Fred Hill and Rick Pitino of Louisville.

Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius has abused her power to appoint members to the Kansas Supreme Court Nominating Commission by ONLY appointing Democrats to the body selecting Supreme Court nominees. Gov. Sebelius has only appointed Democrats to all four of the non-attorney members of this Commission. With the Kansas Bar Association picking the other four members, the political makeup of the Supreme Court Nominating Commission shows six Democrats and two Republicans.

Marquette withstood a furious second half Rutgers rally to earn an 81-76 win tonight in Piscataway. The Golden Eagles raced out to a 51-32 advantage with 14:30 remaining in the game only to see the Scarlet Knights cut that lead to just two points with 36 seconds remaining. MU righted the ship on a pair of Rutgers turnovers and solid free throw shooting down the stretch to secure the win. With the victory, Marquette moves to 14-2 on the season and 3-0 in the BIG EAST.

Each year, the Center for Bioethics and Culture asks me to make predictions for the upcoming year about what can be expected in the field of bioethics. I didn't do too badly last year--although when my head told me I-1000 would pass legalizing assisted suicide in WA, and my heart told me (hoped) it wouldn't, I went with my heart. In any event, here is my article for the CBC summing up how I did, beyond the assisted suicide issue.

In less than two weeks, we’ll celebrate the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday in all 49 states of the United States, except Arizona. This tends to be a very common professional development day for U.S. teachers, I’ve found, and one for which I generally receive multiple presentation requests. Due to a last minute schedule change, I am actually available to present a keynote, breakout session, and/or workshops on January 19th this year.

January 7, 2009: Houston Rockets What It Means: Shane Battier’s already been ruled out. Ron Artest and Tracy McGrady will probably join him. The Rockets have lost five of their last seven games and are likely to trot out a starting line-up that includes names like Brent Barry and Von Wafer. All this, and I’m terrified.
