Dr. John Cmar, who does Infectious Diseases outreach in Baltimore television and print media, Dr. Steven Novella, a neurologist who hosts The Skeptics’ Guide to the Universe, and Dr. Rachael Dunlop, a regular at the Australian site Skeptic Zone Podcast, each provided the audience with information about the flu in general and the current “new” version …

There! Anime girls! Hogwarts students! Trekkies! Dragonriders! Hobbits and bards and warriors and jedi!
How I ever could have felt lethargic is beyond me. Oh! Another burst from …

And the winner is…Warrior Ariam (Lucy Maria Boydston), of Hixson, TN. [The Daily Dragon staff appreciates very much the subtle reminder received from Miss Klingon Empire 2008, Nej Vestai Le'nIvnav (Sonya Desilets), that the winner is really what the contest is all about.
