SEATTLE - The entrepreneur was not one to pass up a marketing opportunity. But when Jason Calacanis went on a bit too long about his latest product at a technology conference in August - at least in some eyes - pioneering software developer Dave Winer had had enough.
Winer, of Berkeley, Calif., jeered Calacanis from the crowd as a shill. Almost immediately, he took his criticism online and onto his blog, casting the issue into the open seas of the Internet.

How dare the resident "climate expert" at the privately owned Weather Channel suggest that the American Meteorological Society deny its "seal of approval" to any meteorologist who "can't speak to the fundamental science of climate change." Dr. Heidi Cullen suggests in a New York Times story this week, "If you turn on the local forecast, you wouldn't necessarily know that global warming exists."

Last week, I read an Above the Law post that really got my blood boiling. A North Carolina man was sentenced to just 120 days in prison after he shot a bicyclist in the head during a roadside confrontation -- in front of the rider's three-year-old daughter.
The ATL blog referred readers to the full Alt Transport article, aptly titled, "Want to Get Away With Murder? Just Run Over A Bicyclist." Using the North Carolina case, along with a couple unaddressed hit-and-runs, to illustrate his point, the author argued for nationwide laws to command justice for cyclists and other "vulnerable road users" who are injured or killed by motorists.

Sam Radford and Phil Rumore went head to head this week, shouting at each other over -- well, over Buffalo's failing schools, more or less.
I could only touch on their confrontation briefly in this week's story, given that I had a bunch of other ground to cover, too.

A blog post from seven weeks ago by a Detroit canon lawyer appears to be rekindling a sticky debate about whether Catholic politicians can be denied holy Communion.
But the furor this time is centering more on the private life of Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, rather than his public policy positions.
