Shelley and Steve were getting a little lonely (just intellectually, of course, don't get any weird ideas!), so, not much to tell, one thing led to another and....they will be fusing their two excellent and successful blogs into a new Superblog, right here on scienceblogs.com!
But, they have a problem - the domestic squabbles have already started - they could not agree on the name for the new blog! So, what to do? What bloggers always do - ask the hivemind! So, go to either one of their blogposts (linked above) and put in your suggestions. They will look them over and pick a winner (who will, actually, get some nice prizes).

It will be a shame to lose Shelly's cool Valkyrie logo. Maybe they can work it into the new place.
Don't worry John, Glendon Mellow (who created the valkyrie banner) generously offered to make a new banner for us, and we'll be keeping the old banners up on a seperate tabbed page.
Bird Brains would fit with the suggestion for a new image Carl Buell offered in Shelley's post on this subject...!
And thanks for the compliment, John! I'm hoping I'll be able to work with the Shelley and Steve on something equally interesting.
