Today is a sad, sad day. George Carlin, one of my favorite comedians, has died. I used to listen to his albums as I fell asleep as a junior high school student, and only much later realized how spot on he was about the absurdity of life and the hypocrisy of government. He has left at a time when we need his insights and his laughs more than ever.

Sour cream fudge cake.
Joy of Cooking. Page 931. The sour cream fudge cake is the best cake recipe I've ever made. We've put it to the test twice now. Outstanding.

PLoS ONE
I recently became the Section Editor for Infectious Diseases at PLoS ONE. While I've been an academic editor there since pretty close to the beginning, I'm really excited to take on this new role. Infectious diseases is already one of the largest article categories at PLoS ONE, and as a medical and scientific field with truly global reach, it is one that can benefit most from the open access model of publishing. I'm still getting the feel of my new role, but soon I hope to start collecting advice from friends and colleagues to help me grow the profile of PLoS ONE as a place where people submit and publish the best infectious diseases research.
