Ezzie's Blog Roundup, 12/5

As you can tell from the above title, I've chosen - for now - the title my mother suggested for the blog roundup. But, I'm still open to suggestions, so if you have one, put it in the comments! There have been a few decent ones, but nothing that really 'got me'. Thanks to all those who submitted or emailed, and feel free to come up with more names!

Before the roundup begins, let me remind everyone that anyone can submit a recent post (preferably written since whenever the previous roundup was, but it's okay if it's not) to be in an upcoming roundup. There are lots of you who I don't even realize read my blog (you could comment more!), and I'm sure you have wonderful posts that at the very least I'd enjoy. [Note: I'd prefer if it was via email as opposed to in comments.] I generally don't see many blogs outside of the ones on my blogroll unless someone sends me a link or I stumble on it, either through another blog or if it sticks out to me on J-Rants.

Anyways, on to today's roundup:

Blogging:
Basil is a finalist for Best New Blog in the 2005 Weblog Awards, as is Atlas Shrugs. I think I've only heard of two others (Decision '08 and The Countess). Congratulations!

DovBear wonders why his conservative readers tend to be students, and why they're all studying to be professionals at that.

B. Spinoza, longtime commenter on Godol Hador, starts his own blog: Ohr Chadash [A New Light]. Best of luck to a very intelligent writer.

Jack wonders whether you have blog envy. Lots of interesting comments. Well, do you?!
Israel:
Ze'ev has a slew of excellent posts, bragging about Israeli ingenuity, pointing out the negatives of a Sharon/Peres team for Sharon, and there's an interesting discussion still going on at his idealism vs. realism post.

JBlogMeister notes a dangerous new twist on the latest rocket attacks at Israel.
Judaism:
Shira wonders if the reason women were on the fringe was the lack of a printing press.

As noted by a commenter, Orthomom has the best post title of the day: Bible Porn.
Life:
Mirty wants to know what percent good we have to be. She's holding at 42%. I think I'm at about 56%, but maybe I lose points for blogging right now. 37%? What % are you?

PsychoToddler has to cancel a show because of snow... but at least he's safe.

RenReb says it's not always so easy being a rebbetzin.
Fun:
CWY enjoys the first snow with a decent snowball.

Fudge is hilarious as always, this time having trouble staying awake.

Gil can be funny too, talking about the UN. Oh - you say he took it from Dave Barry? Well, good pick!

Batya notes the Times can make fun of the new, politically correct Good Night Moon!, too.
Halacha/Haskafa:
Godol Hador explains all his views in one good post.
World:
LGF notes:
Even as they were passing another six resolutions condemning Israel, the United Nations General Assembly failed to define terrorism, because the Organization of the Islamic Conference demanded exceptions for terror gangs like Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and the head-hacking Al Qaeda holy warriors in Iraq.
Check them all out!
