Kevin Hampton is a sports writer for the Corvallis Gazette Times. His latest blog post is titled, “Out with the blackout?“.

I usually skim through the magazine and analyze the content from the social justice techie perspective. The magazine primarily features white […]
Update: I dug through a recycling bin and found a copy of the Daily Barometer with the blackface photograph:
The Daily Barometer is the student-run newspaper at Oregon State University. A recent front page article showed a photograph of a white student in blackface. The article encouraged OSU students to “blackout” the football stadium.

Wendy and I have a pet spider. Bob the Spider has been outside our front door for at least a month! I even uploaded a video of Bob the Spider working on a web. It’s after the cut.
Check out the hi-res version of Bob the Spider now on my Flickr account…
