The Nominations Are Up

Each week, the members of the Watcher's Council nominate one of their own posts and a second from outside the Council for consideration by other council members in a contest for best post. The Watcher publishes the results each Friday morning.

If you would like to participate in the Council's activites, while there is no opening on the council at the moment, we invite you take part by submitting your own best post of the week through "link whorage." You can find out how in the post here.

This week's nominations are on a wide array of topics - Iran, Health Care, Acorn, Gitmo, and a humorous look at the virulent lethality of Gorian poetry.

Do enjoy them all:
