Intellectual property theft worked out better for Stanley Miller than it has for Cooks Source

Dear Little Miss Attila has been ALL OVER the story of Judith Griggs, managing editor of Cooks Source, which publishes online, on Facebook, and on paper, using an article on how apple pies were prepared in medieval England without the permission of the author, Monica Gaudio.

Business Insider’s cool solution for bloggers and copyright infringement

I clicked a story from Instapundit on bedbugs and noticed that the source of the story, Business Insider, has an extremely useful array of icons under each story.

It’s been tough, blog-wise, for the last month. The first two weeks of February I spent coping with two blizzards and two snow storms — it was painful and exhausting. Then I went to CPAC, which was WONDERFUL, but I got very sleep-deprived. I’d have recovered faster if I’d been willing to close my eyes …

A Conservative Lesbian celebrates its first birthday today

A year ago today I was seized with the passion to make the leap from reading blogs to writing one. I started with a free WordPress blog, but quickly went the self-hosted route so my first post here is dated January 25, 2009. In terms of passion, joy, enthusiasm and good luck — and a …

Mom and Dad are fighting

My fairy blogparents, Little Miss Attila and Robert Stacy McCain, of The Other McCain, both came after me on Saturday, May 9, from different angles.
